Confederate Debt Bonds Returned on Moral Grounds
The Chicago Journal reports a London meeting of Confederate cotton loan bondholders totaling £8,000,000. They seek repayment from the United States on moral grounds, arguing no interest, just the principal, while critics call the claim spurious and criticize British capitalists for aiding the Confederacy. The piece ties the issue to Decoration Day and questions the legality and morality of honoring Confederate debt.
