But these plans having gone astray
Booth decided on the morning OF April
IA to kill the president in the theater

what ia known as the navy yard
bridge, at Anacostia, into Maryland
and thence to Virginia. He never

TRAGEDY THAT S..
SHOCKED WORLD
Details Of the Assassination Of
Abraham Lincoln by
Wilkes Booth.
April "a, 1865, VIII Long Be Rsmsm.
bered a. One OF the Saddest Days
In American history--How
Murderer OF Great Prssi.
dent Met His Death.

~ April II. 1861, the Union
Tag was hauled down at
Fort Sumter, and the war
became . fact. On April a.
1866, the man who had been the
head of the Union during the struggle
was shot by an assassin. The world
today realizes the tragedy of his as.
sassination, but not SO well the shock
1t caused at the time. The shock was
the greater because 1t came without
warning.
On the afternoon OF April IA, 1865.
President Lincoln, accompanied by his
wife, went for long drive. AS recre-
alton he had planned that night to see
the famous actress, Laura keene, In
Our American Cousin which was be-
ing played in what was then Ford
theater ON Tenth street northwest, be.
tween e and F streets
General Grants Narrow Escape.
General Grant was to have been
one of the theater party, and the fact
that he was Unexpectedly called away
probably saved his life, as there Is
no doubt that his murder was also
contemplated.
The presidents box had been draped
with two flags, q silk one borrowed
from the treasury department being
placed in the center. It was in this
that Booths spur caught when he
leaped from the box after shooting
Lincoln. Within the box was placed
a rocking chair for the use of the
president. At s: 80 Mr.. Lincoln, Major
Rathbone and Miss Harris entered the
box to witness play of which they
we're destined never to see the end.
AS the president sat quietly in his
box for an hour and half, John
Wilkes Booth, the assassin, was how
ering near, waiting for favorable
opportunity to fire the fatal shot.
Booth was handsome, gay, romantic
young actor OF the famous family OF
actors. Edwin Booth was his brother
and Junius Brutus Booth his father.
Ardent Southern sympathixer.
Young Wilkes Booth-he was COM
monty called by his middle name
was an ardent Southern sympathizer,
and his frequent visits to Washington
brought him in contact with people
of similar sentiments, and gave him
the opportunity to put into effect the
plan which he imagined would be that
of patriot.
For some months he had been liv.
ing in Washington, where he had dis.
cussed plans with a band Of conspira.
tors. These plans at first looked to
the capture Of the president by tax.
