Now all roads lead to France and heavy is the tread
Of the living; but the dead returning lightly dance.

  1. I wonder how closely this corresponds to the total population of each state at the time.

  2. Also interesting to note how the Union States dominate the total. We're the Confederate States still resentful after 50 years? Or did the population not exist in those States for more support?
