Their feeling has been not inaptly compared to that of a good master for a loyal dog. Cotton was the staple product of the South, and it was the prevailing opinion that cotton could be raised only by slave labour. That in half a century Negroes would be lawyers, doctors, merchants, bankers, suc- cessful planters, and in increasing numbers landowners, would have seemed as preposterous 136 GENERAL SAMUEL CHAPMAN ARMSTRONG a prophecy as that men would be outflying the birds. Many in the South beli...eved that some form of serfdom must follow slavery, temporarily if not permanently; more were dazed by the rev- olution and knew not what to expect or what to prepare for.
The North had no affection for the Negro, was glad that he was in the South, and hoped that he would stay there. But the inherited opinion that labour should be free had been converted by the Civil War into a passionate conviction. That emancipation must be followed by a process of industrial reconstruction was realized by only a few leaders.
