he begged to differ with you. The full resolution, basically the same language in all the southern states cessions to federal authority, meant to him and the states, that the state authority could and had right to evict the federals at any time. The point is moot now, but Davis gives a long, long and I mean long legal argument on this subject.


“Resolved, That this state do cede to the United States, all the right, title and claim of South Carolina to the site of Fort Sumter and the requisite quantity of adjacent territory, Provided, That all processes, civil and criminal issued under the authority of this State, or any officer thereof, shall and may be served and executed upon the same, and any person there being who may be implicated by law; and that the said land, site and structures enumerated, shall be forever exempt from liability to pay any tax to this state.

“Also resolved: That the State shall extinguish the claim, if any valid claim there be, of any individuals under the authority of this State, to the land hereby ceded.
