At two o'clock, former Union Army Major-General Jacob Dolson Cox was inaugurated at the state capitol in Columbus as the twenty-eighth governor of Ohio. Cox had been elected before his discharge as a Republican. He served until January 1868, having fallen foul of more radical Republican thanks to his conservative views on African-American suffrage and his support for President Andrew Johnson. He later served as U.S. Grant's Secretary of the Interior. (By John Osborne)
