ya'll are both close. Still, the question looms, why the different dates for the same day? Hint: think calendars

does it have to do with the roman emperors adding days to months with their names in it earlier in the year (taking them off of the end of the year)? not sure that would shift the date in the right direction though... *is puzzled*
Does one use the Julian Calender and the other the Gregorian?

Who was the last U.S. President who could honestly say he was born in a log cabin?
I regret I have but one life to waste for Istaria!
The obvious answer would be Lincoln. But I don't think that's correct because it would be too easy. His replacement, Andrew Johnson, was born poor and in the South so I think that makes him a likely candidate.
This president came after Lincoln and Johnson but in the same century as both of them.

That is correct Awdz, way to go! James A. Garfield is correct. Now, your turn.

What future Supreme Court Justice called President Lincoln a "******** fool", in his presence, to his face, got away with it and actually got a small smile from the President? Name the Justice and for a bonus describe the circumstances

Was it Salmon P. Chase? Don't know the reason. Could be over people that Lincoln disiplined and that Chase supported.

I had to google it to find out.
And I must say, they were the most appropriate words to call the President at that point in time!

July 12, 1864 Lincoln visited one the the forts guarding Washington. He climbed on to a parapet of a fort to observe the action between the defenders and some confederate cavalry under Jubel Early. Rebel sharpshooters had been targetting shots at this fort throughout the day. A young captain from the 20th Massachusetts addressed the president, "Get down you ******** fool, before you get shot". The young captain's name? Oliver Wendell Holmes
