He was credited for his role in abolishing slavery in Maryland and preventing his state from seceding. He was one of the authors of the Wade-Davis Bill in 1864 which promoted the Reconstruction of the South that was much more radical than Lincoln's Ten Percent Plan. Lincoln ultimately vetoed this legislation. Only light wear. Exc. An interesting piece of anti-slavery history.
