History will do them justice, when it shall come to be fairly & fully written. But their present lot is one of local dishonor & infamy. They are stigmatized as renegades and traitors to the South.... The rebellion which they fought to overcome has succumbed, and the Union which they fought to maintain has reasserted its imperial authority. But what recognition or reward have they? The Republic owes these brave loyalists, or their surviving relatives, a debt not only of gratitude & honor, but of pecuniary compensation. They need immediate relief. - Charles H. Foster

These men are from different portions of this State having responded to the call of the country under the disadvantages of persecution as relentless as the inquisition. They have stood by the nation in its hour of trial, and now that they are about to return to their respective homes in sections which have been in rebellion and where there is still that hostile feeling which could prompt insult and outrage, it would be an honor to their patriotism, give them a means of self protection and ...coincide with the policy of organizing and arming Home Guards. These men can be depended upon in sustaining the laws of the country, putting down guerrillas and bringing criminals to justice. - Col. Oscar Eastmon, June 10, 1865
