On April 2, General Lee sent a message to flee from the capital. Before I left, I made sure all my family's possessions were taken care of, and then my Cabinet and I left Richmond and fled to Danville, where we wait for Lee and his forces. For some reason, he is late. I do hope nothing has happened.

I see now you are no longer "president."
ReplyDeleteI am glad to become your President again Davis. I'm sure we can work out our differences and reconstruct the South.
