Plea for Executive Action on Ku Klux Violence in Carolina
Senator Scott informs President Grant of evidence gathered by the Joint Committee on the Ku Klux threat, urging a presidential proclamation to mobilize troops in Spartanburg and York counties. Testimony details outrages from October to July, killings, assaults, and threats against citizens, with calls for swift federal intervention to protect rights and enforce laws. The letter requests explicit military authority to arrest armed disguises and to coordinate with the marshal for indictments.
