Texas secedes on February 1. There are now 7 rebellious states in the deep south. Abraham Lincoln leaves Springfield, Illinois for Washington on February 11. Jefferson Davis is selected President of the Confederacy. He is in Montgomery for his inauguration. Senator Charles Sumner tells President Buchanan he will not accept the Crittenden Compromise. He is an abolitionist and will not yield to the slave states. A Peace Conference is meeting in February 1861 in Washington to avert a conflict. Former President John Tyler of Virginia heads the conference. Northern states are divided over whether to compromise on slavery to appease the Upper South, or to hold to an abolitionist stance. Abraham Lincoln’s inaugural train ride is in Philadelphia when he is informed of a plot to assassinate him. Lincoln will change his public schedule while in Harrisburg, in order to secretly pass through Baltimore, Maryland, where plots are suspected. In Montgomery, the Confederate Congress adopts a Constitution, which is similar to the United States Constitution, but it preserves slavery. This short film was made by Jeffrey Meyer
