Summary
A former slave owner, General Wade Hampton, wearing oversized spurs, a hat with a ragged peacock feather stuck in the band, and a cat-o'-nine-tails sticking out of a pocket, speaking to a former slave identified as an "influential colored voter"; Hampton requests that the "colored voter" dine with him on Thursday, but the "colored voter" has to decline because he has "promised to sleep with Massa Pinckney" on "Phursday".
Illus. in: Harper's weekly, v. 11, no. 536 (1867 April 6), p. 224.
