RE: Your personal choice of "most tragic" character in the assassination story
Roger: do we know what Rathbone's actual testimony was? I personally don't think he would have not acted (if he saw Booth beforehand). As a soldier, I think he would have reacted immediately-almost by reflex-to protect the Commander-In-Chief. I think his guilt was inappropriately assumed because it happened in his presence. What do you think?
