Lincoln Died 151 Years Ago This Morning

[Diana Rubino]

Right, I've seen many photos of it, but never in person. Did go to Peterson House, though, and of course Ford's Theater. I asked the manager how to arrange to go into the presidential box, and she said to make an appointment.

Thanks for posting, Diana. In another thread I posted a link to a photo of the actual bed he died on. It is in the Chicago History Museum.

Great article, Laurie...we do know that the odds were astronomical that Booth's wacky plot would've completely succeeded.
