so the stanton act is repealed in 1766, but the townshend duties are passed a year later. if the tax was bad, this new customs board established in boston, was worse parliament did learn about the stamp act in they knew they needed to reinforce of taxes in boston so they up new a new customs board there. the customs were loathsome. they earnestly patrolled the harbor eager to stop and search any vessel they thought might be smuggling. they also had hate hated boston onions for what they believed to be their attitude towards. they were determined to catch somebody and there's no bigger target or bigger fish to catch than the wealthy and john hancock. so that's who they go after. now, hancock's lucky with the townshend duties because here his economic interests align with the radical political interests radicals don't want to pay the tax because they don't want another tax. hancock doesn't want to pay the tax because it's going to affect the price of the goods he's importing from england. hancock, though, has an easy way around the tax and it's what and his uncle had been do

ultimately, as wounded soldiers were brought down to winchester and then even further south to stanton and richmond beyond. but because of shepherdstown temporary as a hospital, these records weren't kept. and so it was hard to figure out the numbers exactly. but that 6 to 8000, that number that's typically used, that was only in shepherdstown that number was only in shepherdstown for less than 24 hours because on september 19th, as that town is being flooded with wounded soldiers, the confederate army fallen back across the potomac river, the army of the potomac, the federal army is going to pursue from sharpsburg, the potomac river, and they are going to deploy artillery pieces, dozens of artillery pieces on the maryland bluffs overlooking the potomac river. and here's a wartime view taken sometime probably in 1862. this looking from maryland across the potomac river into shepherdstown can still get pretty close to this view today. the cool thing is those bridge, piers, that you see in the middle of the potomac river, those are the bridge piers for the covered bridge that was burned

i mean after lincoln edwin stanton probably had more power than than president johnson for a while, but the but the funerals were paramount they were away. there was this urge especially in the case of presidential assassinations like garfield and lincoln that was just this this mass public urge to say farewell and and to see to see the president one last time where they they really managed to do both now the president wasn't the new president wasn't really largely involved in it. he was going about the business of government notably. harry truman was kind of thrown into the government after fdr's death, and he really had a crash course of what was going on with the government while on the funeral train partially while on the funeral train, so they managed to uphold the traditions and the expectations of the public for the for the public funerals, but the the work of government went on and lbj did the same thing very quickly took over commands of power even on air force one while they're still at love field. so yeah, there's always been that that balance of retaining the secession of po
