Assassination Trivia

[RJNorton]

Kudos, Laurie. Indeed it's Dr. Verdi. Yes, it was a question on the forum quite a few years ago, but I do not recall which photo was used. There are two photos here:

For forum members not familiar with Dr. Verdi --> he was an attending physician for William Seward after his carriage accident. When Lewis Powell came to the Seward home on the night of April 14, 1865, he used the ruse of having medicine from Dr. Verdi in his effort to gain entrance to Seward's bedroom. Powell told the servant, William Bell, that he had to personally give the medicine to Seward. Bell said no, and at this point, things began to turn violent.
