Printed broadside, 14" x 9-5/8", attractively designed, with several different styles and sizes of type, and a cut of the South Carolina seal [palmetto enclosed by a decorative border]. Several shallow blank margin chips, old horizontal folds [couple of short fold splits, no text affected]. Some light spotting. In a modern frame suitable for hanging. Good+. This broadside, a rare and significant document in the long dispute over State Secession, warns South Carolina secession enthusiasts to resist early withdrawal from the Union. South Carolina had jumped the gun in 1832-1833 and was left to twist alone in the wind when Andrew Jackson threatened to hang the State's leaders. The Compromise of 1850 revived secessionist sentiment. Secession advocates divided between those who favored immediate withdrawal from the Union, without coordination among the Slave States; and those who would leave the Union only in cooperation with other Slave States. Unconditional Unionists, a minority, were confined to the northern non-Black Belt portion of the State. Lexington, a suburb of the State Capitol Columbia, lies in the middle of South Carolina. There the dispute was between those favoring immediate state secession, and those who were cooperationists. Each group sought delegates to an upcoming Southern Congress, convened to consider northern aggressions and the appropriate Southern response. This rare broadside, signed at the end by four members of the Cooperation Committee-- L. Boozer, Isaiah Caughman, John Fox, Samuel T. Lorick-- urges voters to support the candidates of the Co-operation Party: Dr. J.J. Wardlaw and Maj. Henry Summer. "It is of the utmost importance, that, as far as is now practicable, the full strength of our party should be exhibited in this election." Hummel 2328 [1- U So. Car.]. OCLC 706099439 [1- U So. Car. (John Fox Papers)] as of September 2025. Not in Turnbull, LCP, Sabin, or the online sites of AAS, NYPL, Newberry, Harvard, Yale, Brown, Duke.
