Without New York, the Union
would have been divided, leaving the
new states TO the North and South,
which had already ratified the con-
stitution, separated and d.sjointed.
1t was only by a majority of three
that the ratification was carried,
thirty members of the convention
voting for entrance into the Union
and twenty-seven casting votes
against that proposition.
1t is interesting, but profitless, to
consider what might have followed
had the vote on ratification been re-
versed and New York elected to re-
main an Independent state. That such
a course. escaped by so narrow
margin, would have had a profound
effect upon the future of the Incl

changed the entire course of history,
