Question 18 • (MACS) 2021 NY-US History CR Summer Quarter 1
John Wilkes Booth shot President Abraham Lincoln at Ford’s Theatre on the evening of April 14, 1865. Lincoln survived through the night and died the following morning, April 15. Booth escaped and was tracked down nearly two weeks later; he was shot and died on April 26. So the best description is that Lincoln died the following day and his assassin was killed later.
