Re: The threat of secession
In Response To: Re: The threat of secession ()

From the Richmond Daily Dispatch, Nov. 1, 1860 online at http://dlxs.richmond.edu/d/ddr/index.html

"Owners of Slaves.
--It appears from returns in possession of the Auditor of Public Accounts that there are at the present time, in Virginia, 53,456 slave owners over 24 years of age. This is about one-fourth of the entire portion of the population who have arrived at years of maturity. The statement refutes the oft-repeated assertion of the Northern journals that a comparatively small proportion of the inhabitants of Virginia are interested in the institution of slavery. The irrepressible conflict will find the Old Dominion ready to defend slavery, in which she is so materially concerned."
