allegation: disloyalty to the Union

text: Stark faced an allegation of disloyalty to the Union. On Feb. 27, 1862, the
76307629
Senate voted to seat him 26-19 since his public statements came before he was
7631-
in the Senate. On Feb. 28, 1862, Stark requested another investigation, presumably

to more fully exonerate him. On Apr. 22, 1862, the committee reported that based
7633-
on Stark's public statements, he supported the rebellion and Charles Sumner introduced
