To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But by far the greatest difficulty which presents itself in this con- nection, is to be found in the fact that the moment the people of any State submit and return to their allegiance, their will is to determine whether they will or will not t derate slavery. The idea of holding any State or group of States in permanent subjection to the United States as territories, I deem wild and chimerical to the last degree. The moment they submit and form a loyal State government, Executive, Legislative a...nd Judicial, we shall have to accord to them the prerogatives and privileges of self- government. Such State or States will send their senators and represent- atives to Congress, who will be admitted to their seats, and the irresisti- ble pressure of public sentiment resulting from the burdens of taxation, the embarrassments of trade and commerce, and universal anxiety to end the war, would compel any administration to withdraw our armies from such State or States, and to leave the people to themselves.
