Excerpt from The Chisolm Massacre: A Picture of "Home Rule" In Mississippi The inability of the courts of the country to arrest or punish is now admitted, and it is sought to palliate and justify the Offense by invading the forbidden and hal lowed precincts of the grave, and assailing the characters of the victims whose voices are hushed in the unbroken sleep of death. In behalf of justice to the living or dead, the laws of the land and the wail of the widow and orphan are alike unavailing.

Not illustrated. 1878 edition. Excerpt: ... friends that stood by, sank upon the floor by the martyr's side, while in the mute eloquence of woe, all prayed God to spare her precious life. As long as respiration lasted her clear and powerful intellect seemed to be at work, for, in answer to the appeals of her mother to "try to breathe again for papa's sake," she would struggle for another breath; but already her spirit was reaching out to be welcomed by that of her beloved father in another world; and "Homeward she walked with God's benediction upon her." Among the stricken mourners gathered there, none were more deeply moved than the negroes about the place, many of whom had watched the growth of this bright being from a child, and who loved her with an honest and unselfish devotion. These gathered in large numbers as they had done at the death-bed of Judge Chisolm, and their tears were mingled with those of the family and friends. At two o'clock her spirit took its flight; and there, almost under the shadow of the slaughter-pen, where the victims were offered up, its grim walls looking down as fixed and immovable as the hearts of those whose savage thirst for blood had thus been satiated, lay the mangled corpse of this pure and innocent girl, with the dark blue marks left by blows from the assassin's hand still visible upon her fair face and brow, now calmly composed in death. The loving hands of Mrs. Griffin, Mrs. Hopper, Mrs. Rush and Miss McDevitt, dressed and prepared her for the grave, and if an angel from heaven had lain there asleep, its loveliness would have been eclipsed by the surpassing beauty of that dead girl.

Originally published in 1900, this study of the 1877 Chisholm Massacre in Mississippi provides a harrowing account of racial violence and political corruption in the post-Reconstruction South. The author, a former Mississippi state senator, argues that the massacre was a direct result of the state's policy of 'home rule', which effectively deprived African Americans of their civil rights.
