Excerpt from The Great Drama: An Appeal to MarylandSuch are the conditions in which Maryland is now invoked to imbrue her hands in the blood of civil war. It cannot escape observation that, notwithstanding the large majority of the peo ple of Maryland are now, and ever have been, true and faithful to the Union, and averse to every design to drag them into this ruinous career of revolution, there is an active, intelligent and ardent minority in the State who are bent upon forcing her into the Southern Confederacy, and that although this secession party, now accidently in possession of the legislative power, finds itself compelled to succumb to the force gathering around it and to temporise with the difficulties it cannot surmount, it still cherishes the purpose of future control, and only lies at lurch waiting the events of the day, to make a new effort to array the State against the Government.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
