On April 14, 1865, an actor named John Wilkes Booth executed President Abraham Lincoln as he sat in a theater with his wife. Booth met swift justice in a burning barn after a Union soldier shot and killed him. The investigation into Lincoln’s assassination resembled an octopus and its tentacles because the assassination involved several people. Although Lincoln's wife Mary and their four sons suffered a horrific loss, there were others who also suffered from the assassination.
They were Mary Surratt, who was hanged; Thomas "Boston" Corbett, who killed Booth, and Henry Rathbone who was stabbed by Booth after trying to stop Booth from escaping. Lincoln's assassination led to nothing but tragedy for Surratt, Corbett, and Rathbone. To read my columns, please visit www.Clermontsun.com or my website at www.themarcabe.com.
