After the sacrifice of countless millions of treasure and hundreds of thousands of lives, you may win Southern independence if God be not against you, but I doubt it." Reminding his listeners of the opponents' capabilities, 'they are not a fiery people as you for they live in colder climates. But when they move they move with the speed and persevearance of a mighty avalanche'. Report this Post to the Staff
