This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Western Sanitary Commission, on the White Union Refugees of the South, Their Persecutions, Sufferings, Destitute Condition, and the Necessity of Giving Aid and Relief on Their Coming to Our Military Posts For nearly two years the Western Sanitary Commission provided a Refugee Home on Elm street, where, under the humane direction of the late john cavender, Esq., the necessities of this class of persons were relieved. During this time, in money, and a large amount of clothing, were obtained for them by the Commission, and a further sum of was raised by an order of Major Gen eral halleok, assessing the wealthy secessionists of Saint Louis for this object; all of which was judiciously and faithfully expended by Mr. Cavender. In August, '63, there began to be further arrivals of destitute refugees from Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana and Texas. Many of them were women, with small children, poorly clad, often bare-footed, brought up the river on Govern ment steamers, and landed here, without the means of procuring a place of shelter for a single night. Their husbands had been killed in the war, had been murdered by guerrillas, had been conscripted into the rebel army, or had died from the effects of exposure, in lying out in the woods, in dens and caves of the earth, to escape the blood-hounds of the rebel conscription. At first, these poor refugee families fell into the hands of the police, but the police station was not a fit place for them, although some of them found shelter there.

Book excerpt: By 1864, refugees from the South and the Western Border flooded into St. Louis and adjacent towns in unprecedented numbers. This influx of destitute people required aid and relief organizations in Missouri to broaden their level of operations. As the largest charity society in the Western states, the Western Sanitary Commission (WSC) answered the call for help. However, many St. Louisians, who were divided by political ideology, were not favorable to its efforts to aid these refugees. This paper focuses on the Commission's three activities to discover how it represented and defined itself amid the political conflict. First, the Western Sanitary Commission published a report of its work on behalf of White Southern refugees whose loyalty was doubtful. The Commission observers stressed in the report that those displaced were human beings and not only refugees but also soldiers' families who deserved aid from the Union. The report was also a form of propaganda to ask for donations and support for the Commission's work. Second, the language used by the WSC for its biggest fundraising event, the Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair, continually highlighted the unity of Americans. It did not mean unconditional affection for human beings. It instead indicated integration under the Union. Sharing the same nationality provided Americans with a way to identify themselves with the refugees. Lastly, the Refugee and Freedmen's Home shows how the WSC practiced its new identity in its operations. By accommodating both black and white refugees in one building, it showed race did not matter for its aid and relief movement. In sum, the WSC members by 1864 found themselves needing to garner broader financial support and overcome opposition towards white refugees, many who hailed from Confederate states. Facing these challenges, they justified the work on behalf of the destitute as a patriotic endeavor consolidating racially and politically divided Americans under the Union's cause. In this process, they pursued a glittering hope; a new nation based on the integration of racial and political identity.
