In the midst of the American Civil War President Lincoln reviewed the military commission record of each condemned prisoner before finally choosing thirty-nine one Indian received a last-minute reprieve Indians for execution. Lincoln stated that he only wanted to execute those found guilty of rape or murder not merely participation in the uprising.
