Article from The Philadelphia Inquirer informing citizens of the movements of the Union Army in the former Confederate States
Emilie and the other members of the LUA continued to support the USCT as well as the freedmen. Contingents of Confederate troops had yet to surrender, and the Union Army continued to occupy the South to support new state governments loyal to the Union. Last to muster in, U.S. Colored Troops remained in service after the official surrender, serving as an army of occupation. Foner, Reconstruction, 148; Dobak, Freedom by the Sword, 458-459.
