To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is to scatter the array of armed men ; it is to break down a combi- nation of armed force — to break the military power arrayed against the Republic. When that is broken, what stands between the marshal and the person that the law would punish? The right to draw the sword comes from the fact that the law is arrested. The sword must go into its scabbard when the law no longer meets with opposition beyond the power of the marshal to disperse it. This is not martial law ; it is the solemn writt...en law of the Republic that armed men shall meet armed men — that they who lift the ban- ner of rebellion shall be met by the banner of the Republic — that they who appeal to arms shall be met in arms. And then when they quote to you, as they do, the language of the Constitution, that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law, I reply that against those in arms against the Gov- ernment the bayonet is the process of law. [Applause.] A bullet speeds on its mission just as legally as the marshal with his writ.
