In addition, the Speaker of the House gets to assign the reps from the seceding states. I got a couple, William Mahone from Virginia, and Clinton L Cobb from North Carolina.

For house committees, here is who I got.

House Domestic
Elihu B Washburne - Chair
John F Benjamin
Clinton L Cobb
John Taffe
James C McGrew

House Economic
Aaron Sargent

House Judicial
William Mahone
George S Boutwell
Omar D Conger

House Foreign/Military
Thomas Boles

For faction leaders, I only had two eligible candidates, Frederick Douglass, and Horace Greeley. In the end I took Douglass. He is such a powerhouse, and it is looking like I am getting people on board to pass the 15th amendment this congressional term. Unfortunately, the dice gods hate me, and for his efforts, Douglass got the easily overwhelmed trait, one of the worst in the game. We will also be known as the Radical Republicans.

For the cabinet, my faction was left out in the cold. I did get Rowland E Trowbridge appointed Ambassador to Germany. In addition, John Rodgers was named an admiral.

For random deaths and retirements, the grim reaper was kind to me. I only had one death, Julius Converse. For the rest of the players, we lost our Secretary of War, Hamilton Fish, to retirement at the end of the term.
