Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The State Sovereignty Record of Massachusetts Dear Sir: - You doubtless recollect the conversation I held with you a short time ago, in which I casually mentioned to you some of the evidences I had gathered of the diametrically opposite positions which the State of Massachusetts has held on the subject of State Sovereignty in two distinct periods of her history; and that you then suggested to me the expediency of putting these evidences together in some durable form for the information of the reading public of the South, and peradventure of some of the Northern people. Reflecting on what you said, I at last decided to act on your suggestion, and, accordingly in the form of a letter to yourself, have thrown together, in the following pages, some important and ineffaceable facts in the political record of Massachusetts, which I have here and there interspersed with a few comments and reflections of my own naturally suggested by those facts. That I should publicly address the following pages to yourself I consider especially appropriate, because it was from your own suggestion the work has been written, and because of your well known consistent and unchangeable devotion to the political truths for which our Revolutionary forefathers successfully contended, and who little thought that those truths and the system of government they adopted, were to be ruthlessly overthrown and scornfully trampled under foot ere the lapse of one short century after their vast sacrifices and Herculean efforts in the cause of free government.
