When a measles epidemic broke out at the mission in November 1847, many of the Indians were killed while the white newcomers survived. The Cayuse suspected that the Whitmans and their foreign religion were the cause of the fatal disease. The Whitmans and eleven other whites were killed by the Cayuse, and the mission was burned down.

What are the arguments that Lincoln did/did not free slaves?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Fundamental to Lincoln's argument was his conviction that slavery must be dealt with as a moral wrong. It violated the statement in the Declaration of Independence that all men are created equal, and it ran counter to the intentions of the Founding Fathers.

Lincoln did not believe he, as the president, had the power under the Constitution to abolish slavery where it already existed. Nor did he want to anger the four slave states that remained in the Union. ... It freed all slaves in rebelling states.
