The Daily Dispatch: March 4, 1861., [Electronic resource], article 1 (search)
America, or any attempt to take the forts, arsenals, dock-yards, or munitions of war, in possession of the said States that have withdrawn from the Federal Union, would be the initiation of civil war, and that this Commonwealth will not be an indifferent spectator in such war; but will take part in the same to the full extent of her military ability, in behalf of her Southern slaveholding sisters that have seceded from the Federal Union. Resolved, further, in the opinion of this Convention, that it is the duty of the Federal Government at the earliest practicable moment to enter into negotiation with the authorities of the Southern Confederacy for the transfer of Fort Sumter and Fort Pickens to said Confederacy, and for an equitable division of the public property and public burdens of the United States of America, at the time of the withdrawal of the States of the said Southern Confederacy from the Union, between them. On motion of Mr. Tredway, the Convention adjourned.
