The Daily Dispatch: September 13, 1864., [Electronic resource], Five hundred dollars reward. (search)
Sherman belongs to that nest of vipers which the South had been unconsciously nourishing in its bosom for eighty years before the commencement of this war. When it broke out he was president of a college in Louisiana, enjoying a large salary, and professing undying devotion to the South, to its institutions, and to its people.
So strong did he pretend that this feeling was in him, that he declared, when war became inevitable, his determination never to draw his sword against the South.
He was treated in Louisiana with the unbounded kindness which that hospitable and high-spirited people always extended to strangers as long as they had the power.
He was received into their families on the footing of an old and valued acquaintance.
Every house was thrown open to him, and he had a seat at every table whenever he thought proper to occupy it. The return he has made, while it is not very creditable to himself, could not have been more instructive to the Southern people.
