Wilson, Photographer. Source: Library of Congress, Primary Source: Excerpt from Davis Farewell Speech in the Senate Chamber, U.S. Capitol, January 21, 1861 It is known to Senators who have served with me here, that I have for many years advocated, as an essential attribute of State sovereignty, the right of a State to secede from the Union... Secession... is to be justified upon the basis that the States are sovereign. There was a time when none denied it. I hope the time may come again, when the inalienable rights of the people of the States, will prevent any one from denying that each State is a sovereign.
