Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Christian Advocate, Vol. 84: February, 1909
Only half-crazy people and murderers atx heart, in the South or elsewhere, rejoiced at Lincoln's assassination. Lee, Davis, and every statesman bitterly mourned - some most for Lincoln's loss, some most for the South, and everywhere for the country. All the kings of the earth lamented, some for the man, some for the President, and all because assassination of rulers is contagious.
