VISIT
OF THE KU-KLUX |
|
The artist, on page 160,
pictures an outrage of frequent occurrence in some of the most
turbulent districts of the Southern States. The scene is the
interior of a Negro cabin, where the little family—fearing no
evil—is gathered after the work of the day is over. Suddenly
the door is opened, and a member of the Ku-Klux Klan appears,
with gun in hand, to take the life of the harmless old man who
sits at the fire-place, and whose only "crime" is his
color. It is to be hoped that under a rigorous administration of
the laws these deeds of violence will soon cease forever. |
