His guard had walked off for a minute and that is when John Wilkes Booth shot him point blank in the head with a single-shot flintlock. In the chaos, Wilkes Booth got away and had a $100,000 reward for his arrest. ]]> 2018-01-09 23:52:06 UTC https://padlet.com/njjor2022/yd181pmavxn0/wish/220008696 njjor2022 https://padlet.com/njjor2022/yd181pmavxn0/wish/220011566 One of the most well known and probably greatest counterfeiter of all time was thrown behind bars.
