William T. Sherman  Tactic of war where the Union marched through the South and destroyed all resources the civilian population needed to survive.  Goal  Goal: To make war as horrible and destructive as possible to force your enemy to surrender.  Total war brings the civilian population into the war to demoralize the enemy and force them to surrender.  It is “in your face warfare” or you (South) started this war and until you surrender, we will destroy the you.  Tactic of war where the Union marched through the South and destroyed all resources the civilian population needed to survive.  Goal  Goal: To make war as horrible and destructive as possible to force your enemy to surrender.  Total war brings the civilian population into the war to demoralize the enemy and force them to surrender.  It is “in your face warfare” or you (South) started this war and until you surrender, we will destroy the you.

Letter Grant to Lee 5 PM, April 7, 1865….. To: General R. E. Lee, Commanding CSA The results of the last week must convince you of the hopelessness of further resistance on the part of the Army of Northern Virginia in this struggle. I feel that it is so, and regard it as my duty to shift from myself the responsibility of any further effusion (spilling) of blood by asking of you the surrender of that portion of the Confederate States army known as the Army of Northern Virginia…… Very respectfully, your obedient servant, U.S. Grant

Letter Grant to Lee April 7, 1865 To: General U.S. Grant: General: I have received your note of this date. Though not entertaining the opinion you express of the hopelessness of further resistance on the part of the Army of Northern Virginia, I reciprocate your desire to avoid useless effusion of blood, and therefore, before considering your proposition, ask the terms you will offer on condition of its surrender. Commanding General of CSA, R. E. Lee

Letter Grant to Lee April 8, 1865…. To: General R. E. Lee, Commanding CSA Your note of last evening just received. In reply would say that there is but one condition I would insist upon---namely, that the men and officers surrendered shall be disqualified for taking up arms against the Government of the United States……..I will meet you at any point agreeable to you, for the purpose of arranging definitely the terms upon which the surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia will be received. General U.S. Grant, Commanding Officer, USA

Abraham Lincoln did not live to see the official end of the war. Throughout the winter of 1864–1865, a group of Southern conspirators in Washington, D.C., had plotted to kidnap Lincoln and exchange him for Confederate prisoners of war. After several unsuccessful attempts, their leader, John Wilkes Booth, assigned members of his group to assassinate top Union officials. On April 14, 1865, Booth shot President Lincoln while he was watching a play at Ford’s Theater. Booth was shot to death after he had fled from the theater and was found hiding in a tobacco barn. Lincoln’s funeral train took 14 days to travel from Washington, D.C., to his hometown of Springfield, Illinois. Twelve days later, an actor named John Wilkes Booth assassinated President Lincoln. Davis and his cabinet had just arrived in Charlotte when he heard the news. Davis responded, "I certainly have no special regard for Mr. Lincoln; but there are a great many men of whose end I would much rather have heard than this. I fear it will be disastrous for our people and I regret it deeply."

Lincoln’s death

Picture: Lincoln’s Assassination

On July 7, 1865 a large crowd gathered in the courtyard of the Washington Arsenal. An unexpectedly large number of people wanted to witness the multiple hanging, so many that it became necessary to issue tickets. Mary Surratt, Paine, Herold, and Atzerodt were all found guilty in a military trial and sentenced to be hanged.

Vendors sold lemonade and cakes, creating a party atmosphere. At about 1:26 p.m. the executioner clapped his hands together three times dropping the bodies some 5 to 6 feet. As each reached the end of the rope, the body jerked upward, then settled into a slow swaying motion. The bodies hung for nearly 25 minutes, at which time they were cut down and doctors examined them pronounced each one dead. The bodies were then placed inside the coffins, the lids were closed, and the four were buried in shallow graves near the gallows which had taken their lives. Lincoln’s death

Remained loyal to the Union during the Civil War. Lincoln chose him as his VP to help with the South’s Reconstruction. Was a democrat, southern and unpopular with Congress Was the wrong man at the wrong time to be president…. John Picture background info
