California stayed with the Union in the Civil War[edit]

During the Civil War of 1861-65, in California, there was a controversy over whether California should remain a state of the Union. Thomas Starr King was a leading spokesman for the Union side. California did remain a Union state. This helped the Union, and helped eventually with the 13th Amendment. An article about slavery and California ought to refer (at least briefly) to the controversy within California, over staying with the Union, and the outcome of that controversy.
