Farrand in the fort, even though Chase said he had built the fort and would learn nothing from entering it. Slemmer replied that Chase did not know what preparations he had made and Chase proceeded to state his business. Lieutenant Gilman reported that Chase said he wanted to avoid bloodshed and that he had written his demand in proper form and would read it. Lieutenant Gilman reported that Chase's voice shook and his eyes filled with tears as he began his demand that the U.S. Army surrender Fort Pickens, a structure that he had designed and built as a captain with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Chase handed the paper to Farrand to read but Farrand could not see it well at night without his glasses so Gilman had to read it aloud.

Slemmer responded that he did not believe Chase was willing to make that sacrifice. Chase said that
Slemmer must know that Florida could not permit the fort to be held and that an attack would start a civil war. Slemmer said he wanted to consult with the captains of two U.S. Navy vessels in the harbor. The next day, as the Navy vessels withdrew, Slemmer refused the demand for surrender of the fort. He refused a similar demand from Chase on January 18, 1861.

Slemmer and Gilman stepped aside and soon returned to say they would reply the next day. Slemmer asked Chase how many men he had, whether he could take the fort by storm and how many men he thought he would lose. Chase replied that he could take the fort but supposed he might lose half of his force.
