Earlier in the day John Wilkes Booth had talked with Hazelton in front of the theater. He later became an actor himself. Apparently he was a believer in the "Booth escaped" theory.

If you scroll down you will find an obituary for Hazelton here:

Keep scrolling down on that same link until you see an article about John Parker, the so-called bodyguard that night. You will see a photo claiming to be Parker taken from FindaGrave. Except, I don't believe it is Parker.
