President ABRAHAM LINCOLN 1809-1865
After dying from a bullet wound onApril 15, 1865,Abraham Lincoln was not permitted to rest in peace, not immediately at least. Even in death, the assassinated president was called upon to make one final sacrifice to the Union as his body was put aboard a train and paraded across a grief-laden country in a funeral pageant that spanned nearly 1,700 miles...from Washington D.C.. Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York City.
"Now, he belongs to the ages,”Edwin Stantonreportedly uttered when Lincoln passed, but the secretary of war who didn’t believe the country was ready just yet to say goodbye.
In New York city, a half-million spectators—including six-year-oldTheodore Roosevelt and his cousin Franklin Roosevelt gazing down from a second-floor window in his family's mansion. In New York city, the grieving masses witnessed a huge procession in which 16 horses hauled an elaborate hearse decorated with patriotic imagery to City Hall.
For 2 days, an estimated 125,000 people filed past Lincoln's corpse in City Hall. Here, members of the Honor Guard stood by the coffin.
After the stop in New York, the Abraham Lincoln funeral train passed through 400 cities and towns. One million Americans viewed Lincoln's corpse, and millions more saw the train as the North united to offer Lincoln farewell. He was buried in Springfield, Illinois. Nearly three weeks after he breathed his last, Lincoln was finally laid to rest.
