At York our pilgrim stopped for the best part of a day, partly to recruit her strength, partly because she had the good luck to obtain a lodging in an inn kept by a countrywoman, partly to indite two letters to her father and Reuben Butler; an operation of some little difficulty, her habits being by no means those of literary composition.

Still the impartial historian will indite that, for all that dark and bloody night of reconstruction through which they passed, the record of their crime and peculation will "pale its ineffectual rays" before the blistering blasts of official corruption, murder, and lynching that has appalled Christendom since the government of these Southern States has been assumed by their wealth and intelligence.
