Frederick, Md.: E.S. Riley, Printer, 1861. [Document F] BY THE HOUSE OF DELEGATES. May 9, 1861. 22, [2 blanks] pp. Disbound, else Very Good.
This Report is a significant piece on the Civil War's opening in Maryland. The first serious bloodshed of the War occurred when a mob of Baltimoreans attacked Massachusetts troops on their way to defend Washington. Lincoln ordered the arrest of many of that city's leading citizens, who watched the war from the inside of Fort McHenry.
Here the Committee deplores the Governor's cooperation with Lincoln's call for troops, rejects Lincoln's authority, urges recognition of the Confederacy, suggests secession, and wishes to join the departing States.
FIRST EDITION. Sabin 45330.
