Harrison and the Confederate Yet
The Charleston News and Courier reports on Mr Harrison’s opposition to repealing a statute that disqualifies ex Confederate soldiers from U S army service. It notes Senator Gibson’s 1886 repeal motion failed 25 to 24 and Harrison did not vote. The Times quotes the New York Evening Post on the continuing odious discrimination and Harrison’s casting vote five years earlier.

Fashionable ladies and la de da dudes parade in the afternoon light, with wall hangings reaching silk-like perfection. Men return to the high white hat, bows and silver crosses appear on bangles, and women change not only names but religions, as the Ex-Confederate Survivors Association page ends the fragment.
