Not exactly a Lincoln question!
Who is the only president to give his inaugural address w/o the use of notes. Also he had no turnover in his cabinet & was a friend of Jefferson Davis.

During the Civil War, ex-president Pierce from New Hampshire was suspected by many to be a copperhead due to his many friendly ties with the south. I believe that after Lincoln's assassination he was called out for not decorating his house with proper mourning material.
