Book excerpt: Excerpt from Digest of Election Cases: Cases of Contested Election in the House of Representatives From 1865 to 1871, Inclusive From nearly the commencement of the rebellion till the appearance of the federal fleet under Commodore Farragut before the city of New Orleans in April, 1862, the State had been overrun by the rebel armies, and the governor had traitorously abandoned his duty and p0st,1eav ing the people without loyal government, and delivered over to the rebellion. Upon the taking possession of New Orleans by General But ler 011 the first of May following, he issued a proclamation, in which, among other things, he invited all persons well disposed toward the government of the United States to renew their oath of allegiance, and promised to such the protection of the armies of the United States. Under this proclamation sixty-one thousand three hundred and eighty two citizens took the oath of allegiance before the close of the following October. Subsequently, as the rebel army retired from other portions of the State, and the federal army advanced and extended its lines, the citizens of the districts or parishes thus delivered from the restraint of the rebellion also promptly came forward and renewed their allegiance to the government of the Union. Soldiers, white and black, enlisted into the armies of the Union, and in New Orleans many of the citizens formed themselves into home-guards, to assist the federal authorities in case of an attack by the rebels.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Digest of Election Cases: Cases of Contested Elections in the House of Representatives, Forty-Seventh Congress, From 1880 to 1882, Inclusive As to Escambia County, by the law Of Alabama it is the duty of the sheriff, judge of probate, and clerk of the circuit court to give notice of an election and appoint managers. This duty the sheriff, judge of pro bate, and clerk of the circuit court of Escambia County failed to per form. But by the statutes of Alabama it is provided that when for any cause managers and other officers of election are not appointed, the qualified electors present may elect them. It appears that this was done and the election held; and it further appears that on the 3oth day of October, 1880, the chairman of the Congressional executive committee of the Democratic party gave contestant notice that this course would be pursued, and invited him to name the persons he desired as managers to represent them at the different boxes. Under these circumstances, as the law is well settled that when time and places of holding an elec tion are fixed by law no notice by the Officials is essential, your com mittee can see no good ground upon which to exclude the vote of Escambia County. This conclusion derives additional weight from the fact that contestant in his notice of contest made no charge against the legality of the elec tion as held in Escambia County. As to the alleged misnomer in Pike County, your committee find that the evidence does not establish that more than fifty votes were cast in which Mr. Herbert's name was spelled Hebert. They further find that these ballots were intended to be cast for Herbert; that they were printed Hebert by mistake of the printer; that no person of like name except contestee was being voted for or was a candidate, and they be lieve that under the law and the precedents these votes were rightfully counted for contestee. Indeed, Mr. Ingersoll, one Of contestant's coun sel, admits they should be so counted. If we then restore to contestee his majority in Escambia, 634, and the votes taken from him in Pike, he gains from these two items alone, on the count of Abraham Mayer.
