Dr. Charles W. Kerr gave the suffering Black people taking refuge
in the First Presbyterian Church's Holyroodhouse-type sanctuary
his solemn word of honour that he would do everything
in his power to insure that they got paid for all their
damages, including the murder of their loved ones, as well as to
receive all of the constitutional rights which President
Lincoln, General
Grant, and the Union fought for them to have during the American
Civil War.
