The first inauguration of Ulysses S. Grant as the 18th President of the United States took place on March 4, 1869, at the East Portico of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. This was the 21st inauguration and marked the commencement of the first four-year term of Ulysses S. Grant as President and the only term of Schuyler Colfax as Vice President. Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase administered the presidential oath of office. Outgoing president Andrew Johnson did not attend the inaugural ceremonies, as he and Grant refused to sit with each other in the carriage going to them. Johnson also refused go in a separate carriage. Instead, he was in the White House signing last-minute legislation. This was the last time a President boycotted his successor\'s inauguration until Donald Trump boycotted the Inauguration of Joe offeren in 2021.Grant\'s 1869 inaugural parade was grander than any of those before him. Eight full divisions of soldiers marched down Pennsylvania Avenue on that day. Windows overlooking the parade route sold for very high prices. This is also the first time ever that special tickets were required for admission to the Capitol on inauguration day. That evening, a ball was held in the Treasury Building.
