To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Entering the President's private box, he stood behind Lincoln, took deliberate 32 MOURNING FOR LINCOLN aim, and sent a bullet through his vic- tim's brain. The President's head dropped upon his chest, he bent slightly forward, his body became motionless, he uttered no word nor sound. Booth had secured his man and played his part in the terrible tragedy.
Abbott, the historian, says: "The President was taken into a house near by and placed upon a bed. What a scene was here ! The chief of a mighty... nation lay there senseless, drenched in blood, his brains oozing from the wound. Sumner and Farwell and Col- fax and Stanton and many others were there, pallid with grief and consterna- tion. The surgeon, General Barnes, solemnly examined the wound. There was silence as of the grave. The life or death of a nation seemed dependent on the result. General Barnes looked up sadly and said: "The wound is mortal." "Oh, no! General, no! no!" 33 MOURNING FOR LINCOLN cried Secretary Stanton, and, sinking into a chair, he covered his face with his hands and wept like a child.
