South Carolina Governor Question Decides Hampton Victory
A Charleston court ruling declares Wade Hampton governor of South Carolina the lawful state chief, holding that Chamberlain’s claimed authority was void. The decision cites the 1876 election, the Supreme Court's orders, and the absence of proper succession, affirming Hampton’s tenure and urging respect for constitutional order.
