This is the 10th article in a series of writings to commemorate the Rush County Bicentennial in 2022.
The majority of Americans were embarrassed and saddened by the events of Jan. 6, 2021, at our nation’s Capitol. To their credit, Congress reconvened that same day and counted our electoral votes. We have a multitude of problems, but now we are afforded a new approach to repair and rebuild the American psyche. Hopefully it will be built on honesty and trust.
Such was the case at the end of the Civil War in 1865. America had been broken into two factions, and the healing process was daunting indeed. Some soldiers returned from war suffering from amputation, drug addiction, or mental stress. In other cases, the soldiers had died and orphans were left in need of care and understanding.
