Robert Bolton, Jr. (1848) 95 words View original →

[Robert Bolton, Jr. (1848)] Disaffection and treachery prevailed on every side; men there were who from fear or from other base causes refused to take part on the side of virtue and patriotism, and remained as neutrals, wavering between each party, and acting as their personal safety seemed most to re-quire. Many, calling themselves Whigs, were constantly endeavoring by cov-ert means to blast the hopes and discourage the gallant few who were strug-gling at the side of liberty, by giving to their enemies that information of their situation and prospects which they had obtained by the most abject treachery.
