- Abstract
- Abraham Lincoln fumes at Jefferson Davis' successful run on the billiard table, while Davis gloats over his latest score. "Hurrah for Charleston; that's another to me" A series of northern reverses on land had been capped by the April 7, 1863 failure of Admiral du Pont's naval expedition to capture Charleston. In the hazy background, Mr. Punch eyes the two antagonists. In English billiards, players score points by pocketing balls ("hazards") or by hitting both other balls with the cue ball (called "cannons")
