The Daily Dispatch: May 25, 1863., [Electronic resource], Refugees from New Orleans. (search)
Refugees from New Orleans. --The Mobile papers, of the 20th, contain the proceedings of citizens of New Orleans in that place on the subject of making provisions for the families exiled by the brutal orders of Banks. Charles Villere presided, and J. B. D. DeBow acted as Secretary. A committee was appointed to co-operate with the civil authorities and Committee of Safety in furnishing transportation and support to such of the refugees arriving at Pascagoula as might need them. Twenty army wagons and a large omnibus were started on the 19th, and citizens having means of conveyance were urged to assist in bringing away the refugees. Among them were women and children, as well as men in distress, and needing assistance. Two hundred and fifty had arrived, and five hundred more were expected.
