Very interesting sidelight of history. Oh how we need a Lincoln today! I still mourn for the great man.

Recently, I watched a TV show about the assassination and they mentioned something that I had heard before. According to the show, Booth was seen handing something to the bodyguard before he entered the presidential box. They said no one knew what he was handed or what Booth told him. I found it almost unbelievable that there is no historical record of a police interview or investigation into the bodyguard.
This article makes no mention of the incident at all, so maybe it was just hearsay.

Lincoln’s security was compromised by the Sec. of War who was behind the assassination plot.

I remember when there was no WH fence and Harry Truman, unescorted I think, would take a brisk walk down Pennsylvania Avenue every morning.
