Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of the State Disunion Convention, Held at Worcester, Massachusetts, January 15, 1857 We, the undersigned, citizens of Worcester, believing the result of the recent Presidential Election to involve four years more of Pro-Slavery Government and a rapid increase in the hostility between the two sections of the Union Believing this hostility to be the offspring, not of party excitement, but of a fundamental difference in education, habits, and laws: Believing the existing Union to be a failure, as being a hopeless attempt to unite under one government two antagonistic systems of society, which diverge more widely with every year: And believing it to be the duty of intelligent and conscientious men to meet these facts with wisdom and firmness: Respectfully invite our fellow-citizens of Massachusetts to meet in Convention at Worcester, on Thursday, Jan. 15, to consider the practicability, probability, and expediency, of a Separation between the Free and Slave States, and to take such other measures as the condition of the times may require.
