Summary

Portrait of Stephen Johnson Field Stephen Johnson Field,  Burt v. Panjaud — Concurrence

“ As a war measure, to be enforced in the insurgent States when dominated by the national forces, it could be sustained; but after the war was over, and those States were restored to their normal and constitutional relations to the Union, it was as much out of place and as inoperative as would be a law quartering a soldier in every Southern man's house. ”
