Picture of the day

On July 7, 1865, at Fort McNair in Washington, D.C., Mary Surratt, Lewis Powell, David Herold, and George Atzerodt (shown left-to-right) were hanged for their roles in the assassination of U.S. President Abraham Lincoln. Eight people were convicted for the crime; three others were sentenced to life imprisonment, with the last receiving a six-year sentence. Mary Surratt's son John was able to escape and was never convicted for his role. His mother was the first woman to be executed by the United States federal government.Photo: Alexander Gardner; Restoration: Lise Broer

Timings

'Herold guided Lewis Powell to Seward’s house... The ensuing commotion frightened Herold and he rode off, leaving Powell to fend for himself. He then met with Booth outside of Washington, D.C., and they proceeded to Surrattsville... where they picked up weapons that Mary Surratt had left earlier for them at her property.'

Did these include the weapon used for the assassination of Lincoln. It sounds as though these movements happened after the big event. Valetude (talk) 00:36, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
