Herold and Surratt

[wsanto]

I agree with the previous posts. It seems to me that if Surratt was in Washington and involved with the assassination he would have been given a prominent role; one more prominent than Atzerodt.

If he wasn't sent after Grant he would have been at the Herndon House meeting and would probably have been assigned the assassination of Johnson.

I'm curious if any of the prosecution's 14 witnesses identified him in Washington after Grant's train left town.
