Not so fast on the morality issue Robert. Remember, it was the Northerners, from states such as New York, Masachusetts, Rhode Island, and Pennsylvannia, that brought the negroes, bound in chains, to the United States to begin with. The North was equally responsible for the institution of slavery. And don't forget that while the war was being fought, slaver was perfectly legal in the Union States of Maryland, Kentucky, Delaware, Missouri, and West Virginia.
