That is what future Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes yelled at Abraham Lincoln on July 12, 1864. He did not recognize the president. Just thought it was some stupid civilian. Lincoln wanted to see the battle at Ft, Stevens and he stood up to get a close look. What if Holmes warning did come in time and Lincoln was killed by a stray bullet? He had already won the Republican nomination. Who would the RNC choose to replace him? I assume he wins after the fall of Atlanta. So how would history be different?
