description: "I have just been shown in vision that a number of States are going to join South Carolina in this secession, and a terrible war will result. In the vision I saw large armies raised by both the North and the South. I was shown the battle raging. I heard the booming cannon, and saw the dead and wounded falling on every side. . . .There was distress and mourning all over the land. . . .There are men in this house who will lose sons in that war." Ellen G. White, January 12, 1861. At the time Ellen White spoke these words - three months before the beginning of hostilities - most Americans believed we were not headed for war. Abraham Lincoln, two days before his Inaugural Address on March 4, 1861, declared, I have felt all the while justified in concluding that the crisis, the panic, the anxiety of the country at this time is artificial.
