The first session of the 37th Congress was a special one, called by the
President. McPherson, in his classification of the membership, shows the
changes in a body made historic, if such a thing can be, not only by its
membership present, but that which had gone or made itself subject to
expulsion by siding with the Confederacy. We quote the list so concisely
and correctly presented:
