Remembrances for February

Hi folks.  If you have time, please pray for these members of the Southern family on the day they reposed.  Many thanks.

Feb. 28^th

Abel Upshur, one of Virginia’s many talented and well-respected sons.  He died young in a naval accident while serving as Secretary of State in 1844.  He wrote an important refutation of Justice Joseph Story’s theory that the united States are one, inseparable nation.  It is A Brief Enquiry, linked here along with another of his works:
