Excerpt from Speeches of Hon. William D. Kelley: Replies of the Hon. William D. Kelley to George Northrop, Esq., In the Joint Debate in the Fourth Congressional District On the 2lst of December, 1800, South Carolina passed her ordinance of secession; but she did not do it until James Buchanan, President of the United States, and the acknowledged head of the Democratic party.

Black, sustaining it. That message was sent to Congress three months before Abraham Lincoln became President of the United States.
