Lincoln's speech and actions in supporting the abolition of slavery in the United States have always been supported by the American people, especially the blacks, but they are greatly hated by the defenders of slavery in the South. Lincoln won re-election with 1864.
On the evening of April 6th, Lincoln invited General Grant and his wife to the Ford Theatre in DC to watch the opera Our American Cousins. On the way to the War Department, Lincoln suddenly had an ominous premonition. He stopped the car and hesitated, not knowing whether to cancel the plan to go to the theater, but soon gave up the idea. For his own safety, he personally asked the Minister of Operations Stilton to send an army colonel named eckert to protect himself, but Stilton told the President that eckert had arranged the task that night, and later had to assign an officer named Brian as a guard around the President that night.
The performance was wonderful and the plot slowly developed to a climax. Someone slipped into the president's box. Soon a shot hit the president in the back of the head. The president fell down and never woke up. At 7: 22 am on April 15, despite the efforts of the doctors, they still failed to return to heaven. President Lincoln passed away.
