On the night of his assassination, President Lincoln and his wife Mary were attending a play, Our American Cousin, at Ford's Theater in Washington DC. His guests were an Army officer, Major Henry Rathbone, and his fiancee, Clara Harris.After John Wilkes Booth shot Lincoln, Rathbone tried to stop him, but Booth used a knife to badly cut his arm; Rathbone was however able to trip up Booth, causing him to break his leg as he tried to escape. Rathbone felt guilty for being unable to stop Booth and eventually went insane. In 1883, he murdered his wife, Clara, and unsuccessfully tried to murder his children and then himself.

Who was Mary Surratt and what part did she play in Lincoln's assassination?
Mary Surratt was accused by the government of allowing the assassins to plot Lincoln's killing in her boardinghouse. She was found guilty and was the first woman to be hung in the U.S. It is known with certainty, that Mary Surratt had no part in Lincoln's assassination and took no part in the planning. It is a lie that the assassination was planned in the Surratt boarding house. It is known that Lincoln's assassination was first discussed and planned by the conspirators in a hotel dining room at 8 p.m. on the night of the assassination. Booth was working on a kidnapping plan until 5 p.m. on April 14, 1865 and had no contact with Mary Surratt that day. Mary Surratt was innocent and the U.S. government murdered her.

Narrowing down your request to the ten days after the assassination. Among others were: Mr. Loyd offered a drink. Dr. Mudd gave food and drink. Samuel Cox fed them. Thomas Jones provide food while they were hiding in the swamp. Col. Hughes fed them after their first attempt to cross the Potomac failed. Dr. Stuart fed them after crossing the Potomac. William Lucas fed and allowed them to spend the night. Mr. Richard Garrett fed Booth and allowed him to spend the night while Harold went to Bowling Green to buy Booth a new pair of shoes. I believe everyone will agree with the list above, but few will agree with the last one. Izola Booth fed and took care of John Wilkes Booth for the next year-and-a-half.

They weren't. The Garretts believed in the southern cause. Two of their sons had just returned home from the war still wearing their confederate uniforms. Booth arrived at the Garrrett farm on the afternoon of April 24, 1865. He was invited in and spent the night inside the Garrett home. On the 25th he left and continued on his way. On the night of April 25, two of Booth's associates came looking for him at the Garrett farm. They were told that Booth left that afternoon. It was late, they were tired and asked to spend the night. They were showed the way to the barn where they could sleep. At about 2 a.m. the next morning, soldiers surrounded the barn. One of Booth's associates was shot. He resembled Booth and he was declared to be Booth. His name was James William Boyd.
