tuition, and IN that fact OF allegiance con
sisted his loyalty; and that the States had
rights which could not be constituuonally
taken away ana tne citlzen nad rights winch
were lnaiienaoie; that the citizen might Tor
ieit MS rights' we understood; that State
could forfeit or iorego It's rights, we have not
supposed possible without common CON
sent or without successful resistance.
