No, I didn't read beyond the excerpt. Maybe the watchmaker did not know at the time, but the rebels knew that their secessions were entirely based on defending slavery as their own words show:
"Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery-- the greatest material interest of the world."

None of that has anything to do with the thread, you didn’t read the article and made a stupid sounding post.

Maybe the watchmaker did not know at the time, but . . . If you first don't secede, obfuscate.
