I Killed the best man that ever lived?
5 December 2018
This short subject explores the possibility that John Wilkes Booth did not die in a fiery barn 11 days after he shot Abraham Lincoln. In 1903 a man named David E. George.said on his deathbed that he was Booth and that back in 1865 he killed the best man that ever lived.

Many thought so in 1903, many might still think that today. But despite all the 'evidence' demonstrated that this man David George was John Wilkes Booth, there's no way Booth ever thought that.

Booth who split from brother Edwin on the Civil War was one rebel at heart. Many from border state families did diverge in loyalty and the Booths were from Maryland. No way would that man ever have repented his foul deed.

Still The Man In The Barn is a nice speculative short subject.
