Lincoln ceased breathing about 7:20 AM April 15, 1865, the morning after he was shot. He never recovered consciousness. He was carried to a boarding house across the street from the theater and placed on a bed which was too short for him in the house. Cabinet officers and his oldest son were at the bedside. Mary Lincoln had grown hysterical and had been removed from the room.
