The incentive for finding Booth, the assassin of President Abraham Lincoln, was a reward of $100,000, a significant amount at the time. This bounty was offered by the U.S. government to encourage individuals to provide information leading to Booth's capture. The reward aimed to expedite his apprehension, as Booth was a fugitive following the assassination on April 14, 1865. Ultimately, he was located and killed by Union soldiers on April 26, 1865.
