Accomplice or mastermind?

In the August 7 Chicago Tribune in section 1 page 19 there is an article on Mary Surratt's role in the assassination. While this has been rehashed many times, thought it might be of interest. If you go to chicagotribune.com and in the search column put in, chicago flashback and scroll down 11 subjects you will find the article. While nothing new has been added it does bring the subject to the attention of the many readers in the greater Chicago area.

Thanks, Richard. Here's the link:

I can see that the 1865 Tribune editors made an incorrect prediction:

"Her son, Tribune editors hoped, would soon be captured and tried: "One of them has been hanged, and the other will be hanged when he gets his desserts."
