"Success records us forever in letters of light upon one of the most glorious pages of history. Failure will compel us to drink the cup of humiliation even to the bitter dregs of having the history of our struggle written by New-England historians!" -- Address (Appeal) of the Confederate Congress to the People of the Confederate States, published in the Richmond Sentinel, March 20, 1865, and reprinted in The New York Times, March 23, 1865. #sec018 #victory #defeat #history #humiliation #dregs #bitter #confederatecongress
