How about Vinnie Ream?

Nope, not Julia Edwards or Vinnie Ream.
Hint #2: This person lived in Washington with her mother.
Kudos, Gene! Anna Surratt it is. On April 28, 1865, Anna was being questioned by Colonel John A. Foster. She was asked if Lewis Powell were a handsome fellow. She responded, "I would not know - I have not seen any remarkably handsome men since I have been in Washington. I didn't like him."
Please, no googling.
Who said the following regarding Abraham Lincoln's Second Inauguration?
"I felt then that there was murder in the air, and I kept close to his carriage on the way to the Capitol, for I felt that I might see him fall that day."
Nope, it was neither Whitman nor Lamon.
Interesting that he says "felt" instead of "feared"
I'll guess someone in his cabinet. Since he kept an extensive diary, Gideon Welles ?
Nope, the person was not in Lincoln's Cabinet.
Nope, but it is a person that has been previously mentioned on this forum.
I was thinking of this before and Gene reminded me ... Lewis Powell?
