Copperhead Alarm Warnings Stir Ohio Union Fears
A correspondence in the Cincinnati Commercial warns Unionists in Ohio counties of a Copperhead plot to influence the 1863 election by funding secret societies and disinformation. The letter cites plans to elect Vallandigham, spread through Chicago committees, and details alleged covert networks across border counties and the Ohio River to suppress the Union. It includes a published Aug 31 1863 note from Towstron Sandusky County urging voters to scrutinize the letters and support the Union.
