What does Confederate President Jefferson Davis say about the confiscation orders issued by Union General John Pope?
ChuckSiata
The Union's Confiscation Act was passed in July of 1862. Union General Pope is now empowered to seize Confederate property, including slaves. As far as Confederate Jefferson Davis is concerned, these potential confiscations are "infamous". Davis threatens to treat Pope's officers responding to Pope's seizure orders, as "felons".
