Lincoln got tired of people lobbying him on the subject and finally closed his door to all who wanted to talk about Beall. The only exception he made was for Beall's mother who got him to delay the execution for two weeks. If Booth made the attempt he was likely turned away at the door; which could be the basis for the legend. |
