Council Fifteen: Abraham Lincoln, U.S.A., November 2, 1863

• Your army has finally won a big one against General Lee

• However, the casualties are overwhelming, @50,000

• People in the north are tired of hearing news about more of their sons, fathers, uncles, and nephews being casualties of the war

• You are being pressured to stop the bleeding and to let the South go

• General McClellan, whom you fired, is leading a campaign to become president and to make peace with the C.S.A.
