From Fr. Joseph Coleman: Happy Fourth!.... "If the Declaration of Independence justifies the secession from the British empire of 3,000,000 of colonists in 1776, we do not see why it would not justify the secession of 5,000,000 of Southrons from the Federal Union in 1861. If we are mistaken on this point, why does not someone attempt to show wherein why?" --New York Tribune, December 17, 1860 One British news paper editorial stated “It does seem the most monstrous of anomalies that a government founded on the sacred right of insurrection, should pretend to treat as traitors and rebels, six or seven million people who withdrew from the Union and merely asked to be left alone.”
