RE: What Was The Role of David Herold
Herold was supposed to kill Johnson after Atzerodt refused - but, he left his gun in Atzerodt's room & George refused to give him the key. After that refusal, Herold had no role so he scampered back to his master.
No one saw him near Seward or the Kirkwood he was spotted only when he was scampering to the bridge after Booth. He was a mere messenger boy that night. |
