42. British workers, especially the cotton operatives of Lancashire, however, by and large did not agree with the pro-Confederate sympathies of some merchants and manufacturers, and they frequently spoke in support of the Union, especially once Lincoln proclaimed the possibility of emancipation. Lincoln himself communicated his appreciation for the support of Lancashire workers in early 1863. This is strongly argued by Barley, Myths, 67–71; Philip S. Foner, British Labor and the American Civil War (New York: Holmes & Meier, 1981), and Jones, Union in Peril, 225; against this view, but now largely refuted, Mary Ellison, Support for Secession: Lancashire and the American Civil War (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1972).
