Answer:

D) Lee ordered him to retreat.

Explanation:

A discussion existed about whether or not Pickett was releaved of his command in the last days of the war. After the war, Lee's Chief of Staff, Lieutenant Colonel Walter H. Taylor, composed that following the Battle of Sayler's Creek on April 6, 1865, he had issued orders for Lee diminishing Major Generals Richard H. Anderson and Bushrod Johnson, whose powers had been lost in the fight and who along these lines never again had troops under their order. Truth be told, Anderson had come back to his home in South Carolina following the fight.

Also, Taylor remembered that he had issued a request calming Pickett too. Pickett's division was as yet flawless, however decreased in number to about the size of a brigade. No duplicates of these requests exist. Douglas Southall Freeman, a biographer of Lee, upheld this statement, writing in 1935 that in the meantime Lee alleviated Anderson of direction, he made a similar move in regards to Pickett and Bushrod Johnson, however the request with respect to Pickett clearly never contacted him.

Which factor contributed most to the issue depicted in this cartoon?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer: I would say C, but A is also possible.

Explanation:

The cartoon was published by Franklin Leslie in 1882, about the Chinese Exclusion Act. You can see "but no admittance to chinamen" on the sign, which is racist, but is more related to immigration.
