excerpt from “The Life, Crime, and Capture of John Wilkes Booth”
by George Alfred Townsend
President Lincoln took one of the arm-chairs and seated himself in the front of the box, in the angle nearest the audience, where, partially screened from observation, he had the best view of what was transpiring on the stage. Mrs. Lincoln sat next to him, and Miss Harris in the opposite angle nearest the stage. Major Rathbone sat just behind Mrs. Lincoln and Miss Harris. These four were the only persons in the box.
The play proceeded, although "Our American Cousin," without Mr. Sothern, has, since that gentleman's departure from this country, been justly esteemed a very dull affair. The audience at Ford's, including Mrs. Lincoln, seemed to enjoy it very much. The worthy wife of the President leaned forward, her hand upon her husband's knee, watching every scene in the drama with amused attention. Even across the President's face at intervals swept a smile, robbing it of its habitual sadness.
About the beginning of the second act, the mare, standing in the stable in the rear of the theater, was disturbed in the midst of her meal by the entrance of the young man who had quitted her in the afternoon. It is presumed that she was saddled and bridled with exquisite care.
Having completed these preparations, Mr. Booth entered the theater by the stage door; summoned one of the scene shifters, Mr. John Spangler, emerged through the same door with that individual, leaving the door open, and left the mare in his hands to be held until he (Booth) should return. Booth who was even more fashionably and richly dressed than usual, walked thence around to the front of the theater, and went in. Ascending to the dress circle, he stood for a little time gazing around upon the audience and occasionally upon the stage in his usual graceful manner. He was subsequently observed by Mr. Ford, the proprietor of the theater, to be slowly elbowing his way through the crowd that packed the rear of the dress circle toward the right side, at the extremity of which was the box where Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln and their companions were seated. Mr. Ford casually noticed this as a slightly extraordinary symptom of interest on the part of an actor so familiar with the routine of the theater and the play.
The curtain had arisen on the third act, Mrs. Mountchessington and Asa Trenchard were exchanging vivacious stupidities, when a young man, so precisely resembling the one described as J. Wilkes Booth that be is asserted to be the same, appeared before the open door of the President's box, and prepared to enter.
The servant who attended Mr. Lincoln said politely, "this is the President's box, sir, no one is permitted to enter." "I am a senator," responded the person, "Mr. Lincoln has sent for me." The attendant gave way, and the young man passed into the box.
As he appeared at the door, taking a quick, comprehensive glance at the interior, Major Rathbone arose. "Are you aware, sir," he said, courteously, "upon whom you are intruding? This is the President's box, and no one is admitted." The intruder answered not a word. Fastening his eyes upon Mr. Lincoln, who had half turned his head to ascertain what caused the disturbance, he stepped quickly back without the door.
Without this door there was an eyehole, bored it is presumed on the afternoon of the crime, while the theater was deserted by all save a few mechanics. Glancing through this orifice, John Wilkes Booth espied in a moment the precise position of the President; he wore upon his wrinkling face the pleasant embryo of an honest smile, forgetting in the mimic scene the splendid successes of our arms for which he was responsible, and the history he had filled so well.
The cheerful interior was lost to J. Wilkes Booth. He did not catch the spirit of the delighted audience, of the flaming lamps flinging illumination upon the domestic foreground and the gaily set stage. He only cast one furtive glance upon the man he was to slay, and thrusting one hand in his bosom, another in his skirt pocket, drew forth simultaneously his deadly weapons. His right palm grasped a Derringer pistol, his left a dirk.
Then, at a stride, he passed the threshold again, levelled his arm at the President and bent the trigger.
A keen quick report and a puff of white smoke,—a close smell of powder and the rush of a dark, imperfectly outlined figure,—and the President's head dropped upon his shoulders: the ball was in his brain.

President Lincoln took one of the rockers and situated himself in the front of the container, in the edge closest the group of spectators, where, in part screened from perception, he had the best perspective on what was coming to pass on the stage. Mrs. Lincoln sat by him, and Miss Harris in the contrary point closest the stage. Major Rathbone sat simply behind Mrs. Lincoln and Miss Harris. These four were the main people in the container.

The play continued, in spite of the fact that "Our American Cousin," without Mr. Sothern, has, since that honorable man's takeoff from this nation, been fairly regarded an extremely dull issue. The group of spectators at Ford's, including Mrs. Lincoln, appeared to appreciate it without question. The commendable spouse of the President inclined forward, her hand upon her significant other's knee, observing each scene in the dramatization with interested consideration. Indeed, even over the President's face at interims cleared a grin, denying it of its constant trouble.

About the start of the subsequent demonstration, the horse, remaining in the stable in the back of the theater, was upset amidst her feast by the passageway of the youngster who had stopped her toward the evening. It is assumed that she was outfitted and harnessed with perfect consideration.

Having finished these arrangements, Mr. Corner entered the venue by the stage entryway; called one of the scene shifters, Mr. John Spangler, rose through a similar entryway with that individual, leaving the entryway open, and left the female horse in his grasp to be held until he (Booth) should return. Corner who was considerably more stylishly and lavishly dressed than expected, strolled thereupon around to the front of the theater, and went in. Climbing to the dress circle, he represented a brief period looking around upon the group of spectators and every so often upon the phase in his typical elegant way. He was in this manner seen by Mr. Passage, the owner of the theater, to be gradually elbowing his way through the group that stuffed the back of the dress hover toward the correct side, at the furthest point of which was where Mr. also, Mrs. Lincoln and their associates were situated. Mr. Passage calmly saw this as a marginally remarkable side effect of enthusiasm with respect to an entertainer so acquainted with the daily practice of the theater and the play.

The window ornament had emerged on the third demonstration, Mrs. Mountchessington and Asa Trenchard were trading vivacious stupidities, when a youngster, so accurately looking like the one portrayed as J. Wilkes Booth that be is attested to be the equivalent, showed up before the open entryway of the President's crate, and arranged to enter.

The hireling who went to Mr. Lincoln said respectfully, "this is the President's container, sir, nobody is allowed to enter." "I am a representative," reacted the individual, "Mr. Lincoln has sent for me." The orderly gave way, and the youngster went into the container.

As he showed up at the entryway, taking a brisk, thorough look at the inside, Major Rathbone emerged. "It is safe to say that you are mindful, sir," he stated, politely, "upon whom you are interrupting? This is the President's container, and nobody is conceded." The interloper addressed not a word. Affixing his eyes upon Mr. Lincoln, who had half turned his head to learn what caused the unsettling influence, he ventured rapidly back without the entryway.

Without this entryway there was an eyehole, exhausted it is imposed upon the evening of the wrongdoing, while the auditorium was left by all spare a couple of mechanics. Looking through this hole, John Wilkes Booth espied in a minute the exact situation of the President; he wore upon his wrinkling face the lovely developing life of a legit grin, overlooking in the copy scene the impressive triumphs of our arms for which he was capable, and the history he had filled so well.

The chipper inside was lost to J. Wilkes Booth. He didn't get the soul of the charmed group of spectators, of the flaring lights hurling brightening upon the local closer view and the joyously set stage. He just give occasion to feel qualms about one stealthy look the man he was to kill, and pushing one deliver his chest, another in his skirt pocket, drew forward at the same time his lethal weapons. His correct palm got a handle on a Derringer gun, his left a dirk.

At that point, at a walk, he passed the edge once more, leveled his arm at the President and bowed the trigger.

A sharp snappy report and a puff of white smoke,— a nearby smell of powder and the surge of a dull, defectively plot figure,— and the President's head dropped upon his shoulders: the ball was in his cerebrum.
