    Commander Humes put it as such “It is our opinion that the deceased died as a result of two performance gunshot wounds inflicted by high-velocity projectiles fired by a person or persons unknown. The projectiles were fired from a point behind and somewhat above the level of the deceased.” The first issue is the latter portion of the first sentence “high-velocity projectiles fired by a person or persons unknown.” George Hickey and Lee Harvey Oswald both had weapons that can fire a bullet at a high velocity. Humes’ report lacks the needed certainty in such a valuable document.

  • Why Is The American Civil War Important To The Period Of 1865

    1128 Words  | 5 Pages

    Some people from the south considered President Lincoln as a disgrace to the south and sought to kill him. For example, a man called Booth from Maryland colluded with David Harold among the rest to exterminate him for his crimes he did by halting the institution of slavery. The assassination happened after the end of the American civil war that left over six hundred thousand people dead (McPherson 22). He delivered a speech in March 1865 before he was killed one month later and called on people to be united and avoid anything that would bring bloodshed in the country. The assassination of the president is important in this presentation since it alerted the people that the end of any war does not imply the establishment of peace.

  • John Wilkes Booth's The Assassination Of Abraham Lincoln

    626 Words  | 3 Pages

    Abraham Lincoln had absolutely no supposition of being shot that day. I find so ironic that while Lincoln was attending a performance a man known to be an actor was devised to kill him. Booth slipped into the box and fired his pistol into the back of Lincoln’s head. The simple fact that Booth was a well-known actor did not make the crowd panic when he directed a pistol at Lincoln's head. In my opinion, this was one of the most insane events of American history.

On one day, Jackson was in a duel with Charles Dickinson on May 30, 1806. Jackson took the first shot but the bullet never came out so Dickinson shot Jackson in the shoulder. The rule is that the people get one shot each and none after that, but Jackson broke the rule by cocking his gun back again and fired at Dickinson hitting him in the abdomen killing him a few days later.

  • Conspiracy Theories: The Lincoln Assassination

    323 Words  | 2 Pages

    Five days after the Confederacy’s surrender, John Wilkes Booth had successfully killed one of the most influential presidents in American history to do what he believed would redeem power to the southern states. Booth’s main goal was to tear down the Union’s government by taking down their leader and his successors, but the original plan did not involve the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. Historian Christopher Hammer explained in his article "Booth's Reason for Assassination", the former actor had created a group of co conspirators and designed "a ploy on March 17 to capture Lincoln as he traveled in his carriage [and had] collapsed when the president changed his itinerary—and several of Booth’s conspirators ultimately left the group.” (Teaching History). Since the failed capture of the president, Booth hatred towards Lincoln grew after hearing the president’s goal to officially abolish slavery in his Second Presidential
