twice now in this thread “Session” is used-— when what is proper (misspelled?) is the word “Secession”.

Typos assumed. On other posts the word “succession” is mistakenly used.

Secede. To leave the Union— to Secede from the Republic, as was thought to be a State’s right to do so from their electorates.

Thank you. That is helpful. I’m a phonics man myself who is too trusting of spell-check, and beyond that don’t trust a man who insists on spelling a word only one way, but if I am led through the etymology, there is a decent chance the official spelling will stick.
