Arkansas Civil War Era Legislative Turmoil and Baxter Force Quests
In Little Rock May 13, a quorum is in session as both Senate and House proceed with business. A joint committee is appointed to draft resolutions for the President amid ongoing statehouse tensions. Baxter’s forces, reinforced by artillery, prepare to assert control if Brooks refuses to vacate, with federal authorities contemplating protection and potential clashes near the State House.
