"Affairs in the West: Operations of the Knights of the Golden Circle – 3"

Interesting reference to the Knights of the Golden Circle, here equated to the Democrat party and treason in Indiana.
The town of Lawrenceville, Indiana mentioned is in the southeast corner of the state, about 25 miles northwest of Cincinnati, Ohio.

The "Golden Circle" referred to is a map of the proposed Confederate Empire:

"An Illustration of the Patriarchal System – 5-6"

To be sure, this is not a current Woke critique of modern inequities in "the patriarchy".
Rather, it refers to the treatment of children born in Louisiana prisons being sold into slavery on reaching the age of ten.

Union Gen. "Beast" Butler forbade selling such children into slavery.
