Excerpt from record	"Before the election (on the 3rd) the Ku Klux were very active. Negroes were warned not to vote the Republican ticket and were told that they would be discharged if they did so. On the day of the elections the Ex-rebels took possession of the polls, and would not let those who were going to vote the Republican ticket get to them. In many instanced the Negroes would pretend they were going to vote as required, and in this very way succeeded in getting to the polls, and would thus vote as they wished."
