after the resolution 1876 presidential election in favor of rutherford b. hayes, both chamberlain and hampton traveled to washington to discuss with the new president regarding the situation in south carolina. president hayes realized that only a massive reintroduction of federal troops would enable chamberlain to continue as governor and thus ordered on april 3, 1877, for the removal of federal troops from south carolina. the departure of federal troops on april 10 caused governor chamberlain and the republican-led government to concede the election to wade hampton. a day later on april 11, hampton became the sole and official governor of the state of south carolina.
