President Grover Cleveland (22nd & 24th President) who was first elected in 1884 avoided the Civil War conscription by paying a substitute to serve in his place in the Union Army.

How much did the wealthy pay to avoid the draft in the Civil War?

The wealthy were often not drafted, but if one was drafted he could usually bribe an official with a drink and some money. The cost to hire a substitute was as much as $1000 (an enormous sum at a time when $500 was the average annual income). However, with the flat fee set at $300 for exemption from a single draft call, a substitute could have been cheaper in the long run.

Why is it important to know the order of succession of a president dies in office?

When a president dies, it is important for someone to take his place. That should be the vice president. However, if an attack happened and the vice president dies with the president, there is a protocol for who gets the job next. That person has to have the nuclear launch codes and needs to take charge of the military. A president has a big job and someone needs to be our leader.
