O., the shot was fired whlcft brought death to one of America's greatest men, leaving a nation not yet emerg ing from the terrors of civil war to face Its most dangerous era without 1U leader, the one man In whom south as well as north recognized a humanitarian. i Abraham Lincoln, best known In the tributes of world writers as "Hon est Abe," had been persuaded by fam ily and friends to spend an evening at the theater. It was four days after the surrender of General Lee, the few people now living who expe rienced the events of that trying pe riod, recall. A bleeding people had turned for a few hours to the world of make- believe in an effort to clear their minds of the stern realities which 1 had overburdened them for many 1 months, and to celebrate the vie tory which had come to the wearer of the blue. In his special box sat the preside: of the United States and his fam when the actor, John Wilkes Boo fired the fatal shot. Pandemonium resulted, not o: In the theater, but throughout t nation, Increased hatreds and un versnl mourning were added to tl. already multitudinous problem con fronting America. And the nation came out of It, the old soldiers who participated ln the emersion, remark today, and laugh at the depression of recent months as they recall the sufferings or the late sixties, and the terror which reigned following the untimely destruction of. a. mind unparalleled In 1U development by alt that his tory has to offer. Remembering thai American men evolved from that period to construct a larger, greater nation, Grand Army men, today, express full confidence In the growth of a finer wisdom from the seeds of depression.
