4. Every white person, being a commissioned officer, or acting as
such, who, during the present war, shall command negroes or mulattoes in
arms against the Confederate States, or who shall arm, train, organize,
or prepare negroes or mulattoes for military service against the
Confederate States, or who shall voluntarily aid negroes or mulattoes in
any military enterprise, attack, or conflict in such service, shall be
deemed as inciting servile insurrection; and shall, if captured, be put
to death."
I have written this book, and send it to the consciences and the hearts
of the American people. May God, for whose "little ones" I have here
spoken, vivify its words.
