When Did Civil War End?
Ask anybody the date of the Civil
war's end. The answer will Invariably
be: "April. 1MS3." Hut, in a literal
sense, that auswer Is all wrong.
The supreme court declared that the
Cl\II war cams to an end "at the pe-
riod designated In the proclamation of
the president of the Unlttdl Stall's."
That proclamation was dated April
2, 1st Mi. Thus the Civil war came to
a formal conclusion on that date, not
lu April of 1903.
"t'p to and before that date" (April
2, l>i !tl). says Secretary of State Bay-
ard's decision, "the Insurrection In
those (the confederate) states, w as held
to exist. After that date it was held
to be at au end."
