Lincoln's last words

[RJNorton]

James P. Ferguson (restaurant/saloon owner) testified at the conspiracy trial (source: Poore): "The President, at the time he was shot, was sitting in this position: he was leaning his hand on the rail, and was looking down at a person in the orchestra,—not looking on the stage. He had the flag that decorated the box pulled around, and was looking between the post and the flag."
