    Glad you visited my hometown. I live not far from the battery. So actually the first shots of the Civil War did not come from Ft. Sumter they came from James Island and were shot at Ft.Sumter. There is a marker on James Island at Ft. Johnson where the shot was fired from. BTW in 1788 Charles Cotesworth Pinckney gave the land to the city for the market. The market was for everyone and slaves may have shopped there but people that did not own slaves shopped there also. It was never called The Charleston Slave Market.
    There is nothing in the history of The Meeting Street Inn that says anything regarding France or the arch that you referenced. The legend of 2 Meeting Street Inn goes like this: Waring Carrington experienced “love at first sight” when he laid eyes on Martha Williams. Carrington was a late-1800s jeweler, and the two quickly fell in love, eventually getting married in 1890.
    Here’s where the story turns extraordinary: Martha Williams came from a wealthy family, so her father’s wedding gift to the couple was a $75,000 check to be used in the purchase of a home at Meeting Street and South Battery. The site became what is known today as the Two Meeting Street Inn. This lovely historic Charleston home was eventually purchased by the Minnie Carr family in the 1940s and was subsequently turned into a guest house. That tradition remains alive to this day, with the owners renting out nine guestrooms, each of which is a sure step above the usual bed and breakfast fare.

    I loved your visits to Charleston and Folly Beach. Reminded me so much of my childhood. I was born in Myrtle Beach and my Mother loved History. She would take us to all the historical places in the Carolinas. Did you ever go to the Charleston Museum before it was in that new building? OMG that old rickety house it was in was the scariest place I've ever been. But I absolutely loved it!!!!

    The Story I heard about Robert Smalls daring escape was that he was prompted to take the ship when he overheard his master talking to another officer about selling his wife and child off. When the ship made port, Smalls and a fellow Slave waited until nightfall when they knew the crew would go out to enjoy themselves leaving him and the other man to guard the ship. They stowed thier families below, and quietly slipped the ship from its moorings, successfully bluffed 2 guard's in the Harbors tower, and into History. It's said that the Union Captain that boarded the ship (I guess I should mention that the men ran a white flag up the mast once they cleared into Northern waters), was astonished and impressed that the men were not only able to escape a heavily guarded port, but they did so with an entire battleship in the dead of night with just the two of them to operate it.
