To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I feel a deep and abiding interest in the future relations to be assumed by the State which I have the honor, in part, to represent on this floor. In a few short weeks the people of North Carolina are to decide, for weal or for woe, whether she will unite her destiny with that of her more southern sisters, where her rights will be protected, or remain in the present Union, where that proud old Commonwealth must, from the force of surrounding circumstances, ultimately become a mere proviuce, dis...honored and humiliated.
The alternative presented to the people of North Carolina, and of the other south- ern States still remaining in the Union, is abject submission or manly secession.
North Carolina has to decide through her convention, whether she will make com- mon cause with the North or South. She cannot continue neutral; for, if she re- mains in her present position, she may, at no distant day, be called upon to furnish her quota of men and money to aid Lincoln in his "irrepressible conflict" against the South ; being nearest the scene of operations in the seceding States, Lincoln would probably make the first requisition on her.
