Line 190:
I take some issue with the bold part of this sentence: ''While President Lincoln attempted to foster friendship and forgiveness between the Union and the former Confederacy, '''the assassination of Lincoln''' on April 14, 1865, drove a wedge between North and South again.''
 
At present it is unduly rhetorical [[WP:FORMAL|and not written in encyclopedic tone]]. It's also, frankly, confusing: see [[WP:LEAST]]. An assassins bullet can not literally drive a wedge between the North and South, it can only do so figuratively. I also refer to [[WP:OBVIOUS]] [[Special:Contributions/130.95.175.240|130.95.175.240]] ([[User talk:130.95.175.240|talk]]) 13:25, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
