BOOTH 8 | "Rathbone and Robinson"

This bonus episode tells two short stories: the tragedy of Major Henry Rathbone and his fiancee Clara Harris, and the brave tale of Private George Robinson. The attack on President Lincoln haunted Rathbone for the rest of his life and drove him to madness. The attack on Secretary of State Seward turned Robinson into a hero.
