As we can see, that compensation never got accomplished in those states -- even in the early years of the war, when it more likely could have been. I believe I'm correct that only Delaware received even a small portion of what had been promised. We won't mention other promises made to those states that were never kept. The president proposes, the congress disposes. He planned to push it again before he was killed. Would he have gotten it? Well, he didn't get the 13th amendment the first time either so who knows. Different congress, different circumstances. He certainly would have had the support of the southern states this time. |
