Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report to the Contributors to the Pennsylvania Relief Association for East Tennessee The fact that throughout the Southern States a large proportion of the people has never, in heart, renounced allegiance to the Federal Government, is proved by the immense numbers in that section of the Union who have been imprisoned, exiled, robbed, and murdered by the rebels. It is shown by the numbers who have braved every peril to reach the lines of our army, with a view to enlist under the flag of the United States; and by the welcome which our troops have met with in every part of the Southwest, in North Carolina, and elsewhere. If any justification were needed in the court of conscience and before the tribunal of History for taking up the gauntlet thrown down by the Southern leaders when they dared to fire upon the flag of our common country, and for prosecuting the war thus commenced to a successful issue, the mute appeals of Union men, who have been imprisoned in great numbers rather than take the hated oath to a pretended government; whose crops have been destroyed, whose houses have been burned; who have been murdered upon their own thresholds, or while following the plough, for refusing to enter the rebel ranks; who have been hunted with bloodhounds, and shot in the woods and swamps like wild beasts, for trying to evade the conscription; these indications of southern loyalty would be justification enough.
