He intimated that whenever it was attempted to march a Southern army through Virginia to Washington, the invasion would be met and resisted, though he hoped the issue would never be forced upon the people. Mr. Goode, of Mecklenburg, thought the gentleman from Franklin had very much mistaken the temper of the people of Virginia. He (Mr. G.) knew not where this Convention might go; but when the final struggle came, the people would stand shoulder to shoulder with the Confederate States in their march to victory. They could and would march an army through Virginia.
