Lincoln sent a ship to fort sumter in april 1861 because the union troops desperately needed food and water.

Fort Sumter is an island fortification located in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina. Fort Sumter is remembered for being the site of the first shots of the Civil War.

On April 8, 1861, President Lincoln sent a letter to South Carolina Gov. Francis Pickens stating that he would resupply Fort Sumter by force, if necessary, or peacefully.

I think it is imprisonment not exceeding three years and a fine not exceeding 10,000,000. That would be option B. I see MANY conflicting answers on the government websites, so that is the answer I have come to.

I hope this helps! :)
