A. B. | The border states were those on and the pro-slavery South. They qoere slave states but in each the white population was greater and qoas increasing much more rapidly than the slave. Socially these states qwere more like the South, It was, course, eagerly hoped by the Con- jederacy that they would come into Bemovement, and every possible in- | Bence was brought to bear to bring bring about that rerult. Virginia, owever, waa the only border state that went over to the Confederacy. Virginia joined the Confederacy in April; North Carolina in May; Ten- essce and Arkansas in June; while large portions of Kentucky and Blissouri also cast in their lot with the seceanioniats and sent delegates | fo the Confederate congresses. The accession of 10 much territory north ef the lower Bouthern states added greatly to the enthusiasm of the Bouth and caused the removal of the ) Confederate capital from Montgom- ery to Richmond .
