4:22...True, each state was an independant entity, but these entity's agreed to act as a single United entity called the United States! = The Union!! And Davis complained about Nothern? abuse of the Constitution while Davis and others themselves cast aside the protection the Constituition gave all the south as regards theyre "property'. I could not then and cannot now accept the vile betrayal of Secession!
