Seven score and eleven years have passed since Good Friday 1865, when President Abraham Lincoln was shot while attending a play at Ford's Theatre. In the time of mourning, a large number of Christians, especially in the North, had some type of recognition to the Good Friday connection. Lincoln became the first of four sitting American president to be assassinated: Abraham Lincoln (16th President), James A. Garfield (20th President), William McKinley (25th President) and John F. Kennedy (35th President).
