Book Description
Excerpt from The Founders of Anne Arundel and Howard Counties, Maryland: A Genealogical and Biographical Review From Wills, Deeds and Church Records For the first time in all history an ideal government had been organized in Maryland; a benevolent lord with knightly powers was at its head. An act of toleration had just been passed. It was the joint pro duct of liberal men of all faiths, but it was at a time when the mother country was involved in religious controversies, which, of necessity, were just as bitter here. Hence the act of toleration was for a season obscured in Maryland; but its influence, once felt, continued to grow until it became a leaven of enlightenment, ending finally in complete revolution.

After the battle of Gettysburg, Governor Bradford appointed a day of thanksgiving. I On hearing a rumor that troops were to be sent to the polls in 1863, Governor Bradford wrote to the President, protesting against it. The President's reply was not satisfactory and the Governor issued a proclamation in opposition to the orders of General Schenck. The latter issued orders to the papers not to publish the Governor's proclamation. In his message to the Legislature upon Schenck's action the Governor declared, "A part of the army was, on election day, engaged in stifling the freedom of election in a faithful State, intimidating its sworn officers and obstructing the usual channels between them and their executive." At the January session of the Legislature the Governor reviewed the question of negro emancipation and called a convention to meet in Annapolis in 1864. This convention abolished slavery and issued the Constitution of 1864, which disfranchised all who sympathized with the rebellion. That Constitution granted the right of soldiers in the field to vote, and agents were sent to the army to receive the vote. Knowing that this innovation would be fought out in the courts, the Governor was particularly explicit in his instructions. Sixty points of exceptions were taken to the courts and the arguments consumed two days. The Governor's opinion was an able presentation of the case. The new Constitution went into effect in November, 1864, and slavery went down by the people's vote, some time before it had disappeared elsewhere by military orders. In 1864, upon a Confederate raid, the Governor's house...
