1: Senators Doolittle and Morton on Reconstruction
from Historic Headlines
On January 30, 1868, the Syracuse Daily Standard devoted most of a page to a speech that Senator Morton gave on the 24th, in response to Senator Doolittle's speech of the previous day. In this episode, I read both speeches and discuss the historical context.
