RE: Correcting History
I really like Ferguson's account. He detailed the muzzle flash, Lincoln's reaction, the flag tear and was the only one to add that Booth said "I have done it!" as he neared the wings. Because of the detail he remembered, I give his account a lot of credence. I'm thinking Booth got the Col. reference from the newspaper reports.
