Judge Huger ION the controversy between Georgia and

with any State Of this Confedcracy in maintaining
their Just rights under the guarantee Of the Constu

that instrument be dsregarded, bv those whose duty it
may be to enforce them will take counsel with It's

adopting such measures will maintain, al any hazard,
those rights and that property, which the obligations OF
the compact Of Union-cancellcd rs they then will be
