Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context Hurlburt-Week-6 Title A name given to the resource This Week in Reconstruction, June 8-13, 1868 Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Joshua Hurlburt Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource June 8-13, 1868 Description An account of the resource Reconstruction is a failure. The Radical party is using Reconstruction for their own personal gain as they control the Congress, they pass laws to further advance the Northern states' economy while they keep the Southern states in Reconstruction forcing them to create new Constitutions which have to be amended individually by Congress when they could have drafted their own Constitution that each state would have to pass meaning "the South could have been reconstructed in any ten hours of the last three years". This misuse of power has led into the Nation's economy as the debt continues to pile up, and there is a general unrest in the citizens for they do not know what will come next. The general discontent with the citizens is directly related to the past three years of Reconstruction "wrought by a greedy and unscrupulous party - a party of traitors to the Constitution and the national welfare. They have been quite enough to open the eyes of any people of ordinary intelligence to the evils flowing from the misrule of this selfish party; and we believe their legitimate effect upon an independent and sagacious people have begun to operate, and are daily extending their influence". In order for this abuse of power to stop, there must be a new approach to Reconstruction "based upon reason, national safety, and pure patriotism be adopted in its place". The Radical Party must put aside their selfish greed, and think about the Country first, but asking this of such an immoral party is like asking the devil not to sin.

Transcription Any written text transcribed from a sound The Case of Sally Anderson, twice found guilty of arson by juries of the Henrico County Court, promises to be as tedious as the Phillips case in its progress. Yesterday the court again decided to set aside the verdict. The case will come up again for trial on the first day of the next term.
