269 - L. Nov. 1; ed: 2/1 - In a recent speech made by Davis at Columbia,
S. C., he refers to the people as "spaniels" and declares the only way
to keep them civil is to whip them.
"It may be well enough for Davis to talk about 'spaniels," but the
day is not far distant when the people of the South will recognize our
army as their deliverer from a worse fate than Egyptian darkness and
bondage." (6)
