John Wilkes Booth was a famous actor who killed Abraham Lincoln in the fords theatre 5 days after the civil war ended. Abe Lincoln was watching a play called "our American cousin" Lincoln died the next day at 7:22 am in the petersen house. john killed Abe because he thought that the country owed all their troubles to Abe and john's purpose in life is to punish him. when john W. Booth shot him in the head, he jumped down from the seat onto the stage and shouted " sic sempe tyrannis" which when translated to English means as always to tyrants and booth meant, "the south will rise again" :D im so smart

am sure he's called martin booth and my great great grandad is Bruce Jones from xfractor
