Why was Mary Surratt not photographed after her arrest?

Quote:Her father was not to thrilled about her relationship (whatever it was) to JWB. Supposedly, that was one of the reasons he accepted the ministry position in Spain, to get her away from Booth. I believe he accepted that position before the assassination, but had not left for Spain yet. He left soon after the assassination, it helped protect her somewhat from the fall out from her association with Booth.

In the 19th Century, actors were unfortunately NOT regarded at the top of the social register. No, her father would not have been pleased by her affiliations with Booth; wealthy and as popular as he may have been. He was noted as a womanizer and a drinker and his political affiliations were suspect. No, I for one, could not see Senator Hale thrilled about his daughter's romantic affairs.
