I'm surprised that the entire day has almost gone by and no one posted this piece of history.

There are many tyrants whose deaths are not celebrated.

The great-great grandchild of the man who set Booth's cast when he broke his leg wanted him to be pardoned. I'm glad Reagan dismissed his proposal.

I never knew that Lincoln was shot and the Titanic sank on the same day (not year) until tonight on FR.

"I never knew that Lincoln was shot and the Titanic sank on the same day (not year) until tonight on FR."And I quit smoking 15 years ago yesterday.
Creepy, isn't it?

Interesting.
I thought Dr Mudd was pardoned a long time before Reagan.
Some people claimed that Dr. Mudd had no personal knowledge of John Wilkes Booth or what he had done at Ford's Theatre.
What was Reagan's reason for refusing a pardon?

What was Reagan's reason for refusing a pardon? To be honest, I'm not sure. But you know how Reagan was. Carter? Why'd he not only pardoned the fella, he'd had pardoned Booth himself too.

--thanks--
No--Mudd was guilty as sin and should have been hanged--probably moreso than Mary Surrat--
