  • On MONDAY, September 24, the Roundtable Welcomes MRRT Member Rufus K
    VOL. LII, NO. 9 Michigan Regimental Round Table Newsletter—Page 1 September 2012 Last call to sign-up for the October 27-28 field trip to the battlefields of First and Second Bull Run. Should you have the time and inclination to join the thirty one members slated to go, contact one of the trip coordinators. You can find their contact information and all other particulars on our website at: www.farmlib.org/mrrt/annual_fieldtrip.html. On MONDAY, September 24, the Roundtable welcomes MRRT member Rufus K. Barton, III. Rufus will discuss the “Missouri Surprise of 1864, the battle of Fort Davidson”. The crucial struggle for control of Missouri has been neglected by most Civil War historians over the years. Rufus will explain that while President Lincoln said he had to have Kentucky, the Union occupation of Missouri saved his “bacon”. The Battle of Fort Davidson on September 27, 1864 was the opening engagement of Confederate Major General Sterling Price’s raid to “liberate” his home state. The battle’s outcome played a key role in the final Union victory in Missouri. Rufus grew up in the St. Louis, Missouri area and his business opportunities brought him to Michigan in 1975. Rufus was also an U.S. Army Lieutenant and a pilot for 30 years. Studying the Civil War is one of his hobbies. The MRRT would like to thank William Cottrell for his exceptional presentation, “Lincoln’s Position on Slavery—A Work In Progress”. Bill presented the MRRT a thoughtful and well researched presentation on the progression of Abraham Lincoln’s thinking on the slavery question and how it culminated in action during his Presidency.

  • Reviewing the Civil War and Reconstruction Center for Legislative Archives
    Reviewing the Civil War and Reconstruction Center for Legislative Archives Address of the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society NAID 306639 From 1830 on, women organized politically to reform American society. The leading moral cause was abolishing slavery. “Sisters and Friends: As immortal souls, created by God to know and love him with all our hearts, and our neighbor as ourselves, we owe immediate obedience to his commands respecting the sinful system of Slavery, beneath which 2,500,000 of our Fellow-Immortals, children of the same country, are crushed, soul and body, in the extremity of degradation and agony.” July 13, 1836 The Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society was founded in 1832 as a female auxiliary to male abolition societies. The society created elaborate networks to print, distribute, and mail petitions against slavery. In conjunction with other female societies in major northern cities, they brought women to the forefront of politics. In 1836, an estimated 33,000 New England women signed petitions against the slave trade in the District of Columbia. The society declared this campaign an enormous success and vowed to leave, “no energy unemployed, no righteous means untried” in their ongoing fight to abolish slavery. www.archives.gov/legislative/resources Reviewing the Civil War and Reconstruction Center for Legislative Archives Judgment in the U.S. Supreme Court Case Dred Scott v. John F. A. Sanford NAID 301674 In 1857 the Supreme Court ruled that Americans of African ancestry had no constitutional rights. “The question is simply this: Can a Negro whose ancestors were imported into this country, and sold as slaves, become a member of the political community formed and brought into existence by the Constitution of the United States, and as such, become entitled to all the rights and privileges and immunities guaranteed to the citizen?..

    ,1 WN90N COUNT/, ALAZAMA MIL IZAOCBK NBMlHieK lists: »s Sillssslssi siissSS si MARCH 2003 PRISON CAMPS Blue vs. Gray by Peggy Shaw The Civil War gave a new meaning to the term "Prisoner of War". Never before had there such a large number of soldiers held in an area; filled to such extreme over capacity. In 1861, the Confederate Army fired on Fort Sumter. Under the command of Gen. Pierce Beauregard, prisoners were paroled on their honor not to return to battle. He allowed the Union Soldiers to vacate Fort Sumter and take all the arms and personal belongings they could carry. He allowed paroled soldiers to give 100 gun salute to the American Flag before their departure. Gen. Beauregard had been a student of Maj. Anderson, commander at Fort Sumter, at West Point, and serving as Anderson's assistant after graduation. In July of 1862, Representatives Maj. Gen. D.H. Hill (Confederate) and Gen. Maj. John H. Dix (Union) held negotiations for prisoner exchanges. They agreed that first year officers would be allowed to return to their units. Officers were to be traded rank for rank and enlisted men exchanges were similar. Both incurred that all prisoners were to treated humanly, and the injured cared for just as those of the regular army. The war continued and the exchange system started to break down. Both sides began arguing with one another over alleged violations of parole agreements. Ulysses S. Grant stated, "Exchanging prisoners only prolongs the war. The war would be won only when the confederates could not replace their men as they lost them due to death, injury or capture".
