John Wilkea Booth.

At this time John Wilkes Booth was
"a years cid, a man of striking presence,
handsome face and very winning man
ners, and yet withal given to the most
violent excuses of every description. AZ
an actor he gave promise of being the
equal if not the superior of his elder
brother, and if his own statements are
to be credited his income from his pro-
fession alone amounted to SEQ, 600 a
year. Up to the date Of the failure Of
the plot to poison he had played quite
regularly, invariably before large audi
ences, with whom he enjoyed much
favor. He appears now to have devoted
all his energies to the furtherance of the
matter nearest his heart-the plots
against the president John Wilkes was
the only member Of the Booth family
who espoused the southern cause.
