216 - L. Oct. 17; ed: 2/1 - A report from Judge Advocate Holt tells of
secret treason societies existing in the North, whose objective has been
to assist Rebel states to secure their independence.
"We do not believe that any great number of people would themselves
engage in open revolution, but may have been induced by wicked leaders to
join treasonable organizations, and might be led by them to open revolu-
tion." (6)
