SCHOOL NOTES OF
 SPECIAL INTEREST

Instead of regular notes this week, we are giving a part of a history paper written by Lester Thomas of the 9th grade. Les ter is 13 years old,
 sYNoPosIs OF THE CIVIL WAR
 The main causes of the Civil War were anti-slavery agitation, the secession of eleven states, and the capture of Fort Sumpter.
 The Union plan of action was the blockade of Southern ports. the opening of the Mississippi river. and the capture of Rich- mond.
 The main events in the block ade of the Southern ports were the battle between the Monitor and the Merrimac, the Trent af- fair, and Farragut's capture of Mobile.
 The opening of the Mississippi was list of Union victories: Forts Henry, Donelson, Shiloh. Corinth, Vicksburg, and New Orleans. Grant captured the first two in the spring of '62 and Vicksburg in July 1863. Later he took Port Hudson and the Mississippi flowed unvexed to the sea.
 Tn the East Mcdowell tried to capture Richmond but was rout- ed at Manassas by Beauregard. McClellen was put in command and moved agalnst Richmond by way of the Penensula. He was driven back with nothing accomplished. Stonewall Jack son raided the Shenandoah val ley preventing McDowell from assisting McClellen. Lee struck back in an invasion of Maryland but was defeated in the battle of Antietam in August 1862. On January 1st. 1863, Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation went into effect. In the spring of 1863 Burnside marched toward Richmond and was repulsed bv Lee at Fredericksburg and Chan. cellorsville. Lee invaded the the North in return and one of the bloodiest battles of the war was fought at Gettysburg, Penn sylvania, July 3-4-5. General Meade was the Union command CT. Lee was defeated and the Confederarcy began to fade.
 Grant was appointed Lleutant General in 1864, Sherman began his march to the sea and took Atlanta and Savannah. Grant, by series of flank movements. approached Richmond. which was evacuated in April, 1865. Lee surrendered at Appomattox. On April 14th, Lincoln was as- sasinated by John Wilkes Booth and grief relgned supreme.
 Among the results of the war. many homes were darkened, many lives were lost, and the na- tion was almost bankrupt. But was abolished and the theory of secession from the Union settled forever.
