Also, in the trial, Weichmann testified that John Surratt had told him he had seen Benjamin and Davis. (From Poore) - Weichmann is being asked about a conversation he had with John Surratt:

Q. Did you have any conversation with him, as he passed through,
about the fall of Richmond ?
A. Yes, sir. He told me he did not believe it; that he had seen
Benjamin and Davis, and they had told him that Richmond would
not be evacuated.
Q. He said that they had told him so while he was in Richmond?
A. Yes, sir.
Q. On his arriving here, the intelligence of its fall was received,
and you communicated it to him?
A. Yes, sir: I communicated it to him, and he seemed to be incredulous.
