it did not get to richmond until april 16. i believe the reason was they wanted to make sure he got into the city without incident. one can imagine a scenario where he was met by a hostile crowd. all the photographers could do, he has all the windows shut. the first news he gets, he comes back to this house. the end of his military career. he takes off his uniform and hugs his wife. and then somebody comes and tells him the president is dead. can you imagine? he is not seeing anybody until matthew brady shows up and convinces him, one last time to put on the uniform and show the world. if matthew brady is photographing you behind your home it is over. this is the general working with brady to deliberately construct an image that will go around the world. what is interesting about this, it is funny. every guy knows white soxcks black shoes. don't do it. that's probably why in the margin, the photographer scratched, don't use. look at them constructing the image together. the general doesn't look particularly good, so don't use

in richmond california one protest had an unexpected participant - the chief of police. the chief joined demonstrators and held up a sign - black lives matter - for 4.5 hours. the amount of time michael brown's body lay in the treat after he was shot. >> the whole point of holding the sign saying black lives matter is to acknowledge that relationships can be better between police and nations of colour, that it happens between dialogue and communication and relationship building. >> kimberley helped to organise the demonstration, a presenter of rise, a group serving youth in richmond. we saw the chief drive up with some top-ranking officers. we thought he'd come and say high. he said i really want to hold the sign. >> no one expected the photos of the chief to go viral on the web making news across the country. >> now at six... protesters. >> the police chief chris magnus joined them. >> richmond an accustomed to being in the news, for the wrong reasons. he was a regular on the federal bureau of investigation's dangerous cities in america list. since becoming chief in 200

but since magnus became chief in 2006 crime in richmond is down over 30%. and officer-involved shootings are down to less than one per year. many credit these restrictions to chief magnus' progressive approach to community policing. >> i do feel the significance of it. i feel like he just set a foundation for other police chiefs to step up their own community and be like, we have to stands with our community. >> what other police chiefs of actually standing side by side with black and brown community members and holding a sign that really is saying like i believe black lives matter and i am going to kind of stake my job my position, my reputation on it. >> we are trying. we are working on it. >> there was some criticism of the chief's actions. like this story which cited the richmond police officers association as being critical of magnus for joining the protest while in uniform. >> i did get some push back. but most of the feedback i got was afternoon live very positive. i got really thousands of e-mails from folks around the country. the great majority of

as the armies's move from richmond and petersburg to the west, they will be marching in fighting every day -- and fighting everyday. the weather was wet, it is cool early april. think about the state of the armies, especially the confederate armies which has been the last several months static around petersburg and richmond. all of a sudden the army has to be mobile and you have to move horses and wagons, artillery pieces and the soldiers themselves. pulling them out of the earthworks, getting them on the road, that is a challenge. and then keeping the army moving and together. as you all know, things unravel on the way. one confederate soldier wrote "day and night blended together. oh it was constant action and there will be skirmishing and battles every day. another soldier wrote that " night and day blended together, it was constant marching. if we were not marching we were fighting." even union accounts talk about the hard marches and long days on very bad roads. on the back behind me, it is a busy map that you can see the movement of the armies to cover a lot of ground. there are
