On April 14, a cheerful Lincoln expresses to his wife that they will be happy in the future and later meets members of his cabinet to discuss future measures to enfranchise blacks, before leaving for Ford's Theatre. That night, while Lincoln's son Tad is watching "Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp" at Grover's Theatre, the manager suddenly stops the play to announce that the President has been shot. The next morning Lincoln dies at the Petersen House with a peaceful expression crossed his face; in a flashback, Lincoln delivers his second inaugural address on March 4.
