Rutherford Birchard Hayes was a lawyer and politician who held several positions, including serving as the 19th president of the United States from 1877 to 1881, following his service in the U.S. House of Representatives and as governor of Ohio. Before the Civil War, Hayes was a staunch abolitionist who defended refugee slaves in court. He later served in the Union Army and in Congress before assuming the presidency. His presidency marked the end of Reconstruction in the United States, and he is considered a turning point in U.S. history. Hayes was associated with the Republican “Half-Breed” faction and worked to reconcile Southern Democrats and Whiggish Republican businessmen by ending federal efforts to promote racial equality in the South.
