*Saxton remained with the military until he retired from active duty in 1888. He died on February 23, 1908, at his home in Washington, DC.

*Perry’s statement echoed a speech by Confederate vice president Alexander Stephens, who had proclaimed that the Confederacy’s cornerstone rested on the “great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery, subordination to the superior race, is his natural and normal condition.” As many Southerners now saw it, the very danger that their politicians had warned them about before the war had come to pass, and the Freedmen’s Bureau was the catastrophe’s insidious agent. Dew, Apostles of Disunion, 14.
