Answer:

The news that on April 12, 1861, Confederate forces fired on Fort Sumter reached Washington just as watchmaker Jonathan Dillon was repairing Abraham Lincoln’s timepiece. Caught up in the moment, Dillon unscrewed the dial and engraved: “Jonathan Dillon April 13, 1861, Fort Sumpter was attacked by the rebels on the above date J Dillon April 13, 1861, Washington” and “thank God we have a government, Jonath Dillon.” Other watchmakers’ markings also appear on the plate.

Lincoln never knew of the message he carried in his pocket. The inscription remained hidden behind the dial.

The unconfirmed story was known only within Dillon’s family until now. After being contacted by Dillon’s great great-grandson, the Museum removed the dial on March 10, 2009, to reveal the watchmaker’s declaration.

Use your graphic organizer on the revolts in Latin America to write a paragraph that makes a generalization about the successes
V125BC [204]

Answer:

The Latin American Wars of Independence were the revolutions that took place during the late 18th and early 19th centuries and resulted in the creation of a number of independent countries in Latin America. These revolutions followed the American and French Revolutions, which had profound effects on the Spanish, Portuguese, and French colonies in the Americas. Haiti, a French slave colony, was the first to follow the United States to independence during the Haitian Revolution, which lasted from 1791 to 1804. From this Napoleon Bonaparte emerged as French ruler, whose armies set out to conquer Europe, including Spain and Portugal, in 1808.
