territory ! – LAWS would be needed for that

effort with “a cause” –becomes a crusade

A Johnson fights against these measures and revokes
Sherman’s orders (40 acres..)

FBA, the CRA and the 14th A

- republican majorities in S and H of R--- radicals begin
to implement their reconstruction program:
CRA,FBA,14th A, the Reconstruction Act (1867)

be met with overrides
