The Original Ku Klux Klan and its Successor: A Paper read at stated meeting of the Military order of the Loyal Legion of the United States, Commandery of the State of Illinois, October 6, 1921
Only the terrible, mysterious fact of death was certain. Accusative by secret denunciation; sentence without hearing; execution without warning, mercy, or appeal. In the deaths alone, terrible beyond utterance, but in the manner of death—the secret, intangible doom from which fate springs—more terrible still in the treachery which made a neighbor a disguised assassin—most horrible of all the feuds and hates which history portrays. "And then the wounded—those who escaped the harder fate—the whipped, the mangled, the bleeding, and the torn; men despoiled of manhood; women gravid with dead children ; bleeding backs, broken limbs! Ah! The wounded in this silent warfare were more thousands than those who groaned upon the slopes of Gettysburg.
