On May 4, 1865, Abraham Lincoln was laid to rest in his hometown of Springfield, Illinois. His funeral train had traveled through 180 cities and seven states before reaching Springfield. At each stop, mourners paid their respects to Lincoln, who had been killed on April 14. Murdered by John Wilkes Booth, Lincoln became the first U.S. president to be assassinated. Lincoln’s son Willie, who died at age 11 from typhoid fever in 1862 and had originally been buried in Washington, D.C. while Lincoln was serving as president, was moved next to his father in the family plot that same day. Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the United States of America, who successfully prosecuted the Civil War to preserve the nation. He played in key role in passage of the Thirteenth Amendment, which officially ended slavery in America. Murdered by John Wilkes Booth, Lincoln became the first U.S. president to be assassinated.
