THE LINCOLN ASSASSINATION.
Enn-rai of the Five Conspirators After
the Execution,


ths Execution.
As n newspaper correspondent l had occasion
to visit the old Capitol prison iii Washington in
February, 1869, TO witness the exhumatiou and
the rendition to their respective relatives and
friends OF the remains or the conspirators in the
Lincoln assassination. President Johnson was
about to go out of Office, aud he issued an order
permitting Christian burial 10 the hndies of the
five persons implicated in the death Of Lincoln
Booth, Mrs Snrratt, Atzerodt, Payne, and IL irold
They had been buried in ammunition boxes of com
mon pine wood, six feet long, two ieet wide, and
two feet deep. When the lid was liled from
Booths coffin his face was perfect, with the cx-
ception of u small hole about the size of u dime in
each check. His hair was in as good condition rs
If he had Just came out of barbers shop. In
taking out the body to place 1t in q handsome
rosewood coffin supplied by the mother, Mrs.
Booth, of Baltimore the head dropped off from
the body. Not SO with Mrs. Surratt. Her fnce and
form were perfect, and she looked like one In u
happy, dreamless sleep. Her head adhered TO the
body in the process OF transfer. Payne's body was
greatly wasted. Atzerodts body was the worst of
all for when the army blanket that covered his
remains was lifted up 1t revealed n shapeless mass
OF blackened bones and ashes, with a bald and
separated skull in one corner.-Boston Traveller.
