I went to Ford’s theater in Washington this spring and saw the park ranger’s presentation about the assassination. I later asked the ranger what she thought about Mary Surratt’s guilty verdict. The ranger answered by saying that Mary Surratt was “up to her neck” in it.
Incidentally, Surratt’s boarding house still exists and is only a few blocks from the theater in what is now Chinatown. It is now a Chinese restaraunt. It is worth the 10 minute walk to go see it. Another very interesting site to see is to take the 2 mile drive out to the restored Soldiers Home where the Lincoln family spent their summers in sweltering Washington City. One evening, as Lincoln was riding his horse alone from the White House to the Home, an assassin” bullet whirred by Lincoln’s head.
