Dale: "This is Derry Dale coming to you live from the Statehouse press room in Fredericksburg, where I’ve just been informed that there’s been another delay. As you know, Governor Jefferson scheduled an unprecedented emergency press conference this evening, but he has yet to make an appearance. Speculation is rife among those gathered here. Many think the governor will be addressing the rumor that Confederated States troops are massing on the border. But one thing everyone here agrees on is that the state press secretary’s preliminary teaser about the governor making an important announcement is without a doubt true.
