Best Answer

He was shot on April 14, five days after Lee's surrender to Grant at Appomattox on April 9, 1865 - which is taken as the effective end of the war, although there were some skirmishes after this.

Lincoln certainly felt it was all over, and was looking forward to the Victory Parade the next day (which he never did get to see). His wife said he was looking more relaxed than she had ever seen him.
