On July 12, 1864, President Lincoln stood atop the parapet of the fort to witness the battle and came under direct fire of Confederate sharpshooters. It is the only time in American history in which a sitting president came under direct fire from an enemy combatant. Many individuals claimed to be the one to encourage President Lincoln down from the parapet. The most notable individual was a young officer named Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. His remarks to the president were short and straightforward: “Get down, you damn fool!” Holmes would eventually serve as a justice on the U.S. Supreme Court, 1902-1932..THE GREAT REBEL RAID- THE LATEST INTELLIGENCE- CONDITION OF BALTIMORE- REBEL TROOPS DRIVEN OUT BY OUR CAVALRY, Nice detailed coverage, THE RAID- AN EXCELLENT EDITORIAL, FROM SHERMAN'S ARMY- CROSSING OF THE CHATTAHOOCHEE- 2,000 REBELS CAPTURED- JOHNSTON SUDDENLY MISSING- THE REBELS BURN ALL THE BRIDGES- THE ADVANCE TO THE CHATTAHOOCHEE -SKIRMISH ON THE 4TH OF JULY, FROM GRANT'S ARMY - REBELS FEELING OUR LINES -THEY MEND THE WELDON RAILROAD- RUMOR OF THE OCCUPATION OF PETERSBURG, FROM WASHINGTON- SENATOR SUMNER SAFE- LATEST MOVEMENTS OF THE REBELS- GENERAL SHERMAN ONLY 6 MILES FROM ATLANTA, Superb New YorkTribune editorials, much more in this historical paper, as with all of my Newspapers, please look at the photos and ask questions, Very good condition, normal wear
