California: I want to leave the Union!

South Carolina (with 10 others): Good luck with that.

TENNESSEE here. A word to the wise (& even the stupid) -
Count the cost. The cost is HIGH, very, very HIGH.

As a side note; volunteer and professional “buriers” had
to scour the land and bury many thousands of rotting
corpses, both Union and Confederate. That was a very
dirty and thankless job. No glamour.
