As soon as the new Governor was appointed by President Andrew Johnson, General Swayne went to him and made him his friend. A little later he came to command the State in addition to his bureau duties as Military Governor. His thorough knowledge of the law, his splendid diplomatic ability, his high character and Christian courtliness enabled him in reality to lead my other Assistant Commissioners in rehabilitating the State so that the whites and the freemen could live to- gether in comparative ...peace and prosperity. It would take a volume to set forth what he did. After relieving want and establishing good schools, he first saw to it that the negroes testimony should be received in all the courts of that State. This ended, he worked out in a wonderful way against a prejudice and an opposition of a most pronounced character.
General Swayne, contrary to his first expectations, a little later found the Alabama legislators anything but fair and just. He, General Swayne, said : 'The vagrant law of Alabama operates most iniquitously upon the freemen.
