You might be interested to know that Lincoln put his signature on the Thirteenth Amendment, even though it wasn’t required. It was his sincere desire that his name be on it. Of course it was after his untimely demise that it passed, with his name on it. Most dictators put their names on their diktats.
His armies "ratified" that Amendment.

Lincoln met his untimely demise before the ratifying of the 13th. Lincoln didn’t live to complete his mission, which was to bind up the wounds of the Union with malice towards none and charity for all. That is why we argue over the Civil War to this day. With Lincoln’s untimely demise a chapter of our history did not reach a denouement.
