Southern Rights Confederate US Historic 3×5 Flag
$9.98
Pro-slavery forces carried this flag while attacking the anti-slavery stronghold of Lawrence. Sheriff Samuel Jones led the group in sacking the town on May 21, 1856. A group of South Carolinians known as the Palmetto Guards participated in the attack, and flew their “Southern Rights” flag over the “Herald of Freedom” newspaper offices and the Free State Hotel before destroying the buildings.
