here we have william powell -- a local farmer. he is relating his confrontation with george, the day after newsom disappeared. "i asked his negro boy george where he thought he was. he stated that he did not believe it was worthwhile to hunt for him anywhere except close around the house. for he had reasons to believe he was not far off. i told him he had better go and show us the old man, if he knew where he was. he stated he believed the last walking yet done was along this path." that is the path between celia's cabin and the house. "i believed that he had been destroyed -- or killed -- in the cabin." here we have powell. george has not given a statement at this point of the preceding. we hear his words filtered through powell's ideas, but we have the suggestion that what? that george has somehow, if not implicated celia, he has certainly implicated celia's cabin, right? as the site of newsom's demise, and as we know, this will lead powell and others to more seriously scrutinize the area around celia's cabin, but more to more c

william seward is still alive. as are all the victims of lewis powell's savage attack.andrew johnson has been sworn in as the 17th president of the united states. but as abraham lincoln's body lies in state in the east room of the white house, john wilkes booth lies on a bed of dirt and pine needles and reads the worst reviews of his life. a man who was raised on shakespeare is brought to his knees by his own hubris. in one fell swoop, with one grand gesture, he has changed the course of american history and dramatically jeopardized the fate of the south that he loved so dearly. booth's tragedy is nearly complete. on the night of april 209 he leads them to a boat. the current is strong. there are naval patrols searching the potomac for the fugitives. john wilkes booth has less than six days to live.
