A newspaper cutting put in evidence before the Congressional Committee: [From the Independent Monitor, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, September 1, 1868] A Prospective Scene in the City of Oaks 4th of March, 1869: Hang, curs, hang! ***** Their complexion is perfect gallows. Standfast, good fate, to their hanging! ***** If they be not born to be hanged, our case is miserable.” The above cut represents the fate in store for those great pests of Southern society—the carpet-bagger and scalawag —if found in Dixie’s land after the break of day on the 4th of March next.
