South WAS e citing for Negro Slavery, but
those men, saw deeper significance in

the N'rth was hostile to them as people
They fought for the natural rights OF

tyranny was in store for them. whanever
the dor inant and ruling sentiment Of til
north achieved power They believed
that when that party obtained the power
Of tn Federal Government it would use
the powers Of the government as instru-
ments Of oppression and ruin.

pie were right

An acting on these beliefs they went
to war to resist that spirit Of intolerance

We presume that Mr.. Bishop himself

it is therefore natural that he shouli hest
tate little in giving any specific informa-

perhaps he finds that the supply of NUDES
