He got his wish. The grateful dead.
What was he worried about, among other things, shortly before he was killed?
That the 100,000 escaped or freed negroes he had armed and trained to fight would start a race war when returned back to the South.
(Of course, they were never considered for the possibility of remaining in the Northern states, which would never have accepted them under any circumstances except under duress of armed force. Another Civil War in the North!)
