I think Edward was between his first and second wife at that time.

In April, The Boston Daily Advertiser printed an advertisement for Edwin Booth’s scheduled matinee performance as “Hamlet” to conclude his successful three-week Boston engagement. Just three columns to the right was the report on the assassination the night before.

The show did not go on.
