" The amendment was rejected by ten of the eleven insurrectionary States, — the President's own State of Tennessee being the only one in favor of it. On the 17th of January, 1867, Governor Parsons, who had been the provisional governor of Alabama, telegraphed from the capital of that State to the Presi- dent as follows : — Legislature in session. Efforts making to reconsider vote on constitutional amendment. Report from Washington says it is probable an enabling act will pass. We do not know wh...at to believe. I find nothing here. 346 THE PLAN OF CONGRESS The provisional legislature had, in conformity with the Johnson policy, rejected the Fourteenth Amendment on the 7tli of the previous month, by a vote of 27 to 2 in the Senate and 69 to 8 in the House. It was a proposed reconsideration of this vote of rejection con- cerning which Governor Parsons sought the President's advice. The " enabling act " to which he referred was a reconstruction measure like that which was finally enacted less than three months later.
