YangC+8E-John+Wilkes+Booth





  **Phase 1: K-W-L Paragraph **  **1. //What do I already know about my historical figure?// ** John Wilkes Booth (J.W.B.) was an American actor who strongly opposed/criticized against the abolitionists. Booth had attempted many times to assassinate Abraham Lincoln, but have failed. With other members of the conspiracy, he assassinated Abraham Lincoln in Ford’s Theater. Although many people had different statements about what he exactly shouted after Abraham Lincoln’s assassination, his quote became very controversial and well-known among the people: “Sic semper tyrannis” which meant thus ever to tyrants. **2. //What more do I want to learn?// ** I want to learn why he assassinated Abraham Lincoln, what his ideas/views were about the Civil War and abolitionists, how his family and others possibly affected his opinions/purposes, how he have come to meet/interact with the other conspirators,what happened to him after Lincoln’s assassination, how his ideas affected others, and how the assassination of Lincoln affected the nation. **3. //Where can I go to find out more information?// ** Secondary sources can be used to find basic information such as his birth and death date, his family, his career, etc. during my initial research. Primary sources such as his diary entries, quotes, and images can be used to analyze more deeply about his purpose and philosophies. **Biography Research Guide ** <span style="display: block; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">**<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Date of Birth : May 10, 1838 ** <span style="display: block; font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; text-align: left;"><span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;"> **<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Where person was born : Bel Air, Maryland  **<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;"> **<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Date of Death : April 26, 1865  **<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;"> **<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Where person died : Port Royal, Virginia  ** four children who died in their childhood (Henry, Mary, Ann, and Elizabeth), Edwin B.

After his father’s death, he left the school and worked in a farm near Bel Air. When he was a teenager (1850s) joined the Know-Nothing Party (political party/group that opposed against immigrants coming into U.S. and especially immigrants who were Roman Catholic. They felt this rush of immigrants to the nation posed an economic and political security of native-born Protestant Americans.) In 1855 when he was only 17 years old, he made his first debut as an actor in Shakespeare’s play, Richard III that was playing in Charles Street Theater in Baltimore. He worked for a year at Philadelphia Theater, and later became the official member of the Richmond Theater (Virginia). He became famous for his charming look, and many called him “the handsomest man in America”. <span style="display: block; font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; text-align: left;">**<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Education (Early Learning, Schools Attended): ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">When he was 13 he studied at St. Timothy’s Hall, an Episcopal military academy in Catonsville, Maryland He also attended few private schools such as the boarding school directed by the Quakers in Cockeysville. He left the school in 1852 when his father died. He studied classic novels and especially Shakespeare. He worked in a farm near Bel Air for a time and Asia, his sister remembered Booth saying, “I want fame, fame!” Later he followed his dream of becoming a famous actor like his father, Junius Booth. <span style="display: block; font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; text-align: left;">**<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Adult Life (Jobs, Wife or Husband, Children): ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">He was an actor well known for his good looks. Booth had no wife, but there was evidence of romance with Isabel Summer and Lucy Lambert Hale. He met Isabel Summer, a very fine 16-year-old lady in the spring of 1864. They exchanged photographs, letters and a ring inscribed “J.W.B. to I.S.” There was no further evidence that their relationship lasted beyond the summer of 1864. In late 1864 or early 1865 he entered in a romance with Lucy Lambert Hale who was the daughter of John Parker Hale, New Hampshire’s former abolitionist senator. John Wilkes had no child.
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Family (Father, Mother,Brothers, Sisters): ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">John Wilkes Booth was the ninth of ten children of the famous actor, Junius Brutus Booth. Junius Brutus Booth divorced with Adelaide Delannoy Booth, his former wife, and married to Mary Ann Holmes. Of the ten children Junius Booth had, the first child, Richard was born between him and Adelaide Delannoy Booth, and rest of the children were born between Junius Booth and Mary Ann Holmes: Junius Brutus Jr. B. (1821), Rosalie B. (1823),

<span style="display: block; font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; text-align: left;">**<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Important Events or Stories about this person as an adult: ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">His life events reflected his ardent devotion towards the south and slavery. In 1859, John Wilkes Booth assisted the capture of John Brown at the Harper’s Ferry Raid with the Virginia militia. He also witnessed the execution of John Brown, the abolitionist and guarded against any attempt to rescue John Brown.During the American Civil War he worked as a spy for the South and smuggled medical supplies from the North to the South’s Confederate Army. Although he was devoted to the South, and abhorred Abraham Lincoln who he thought was a tyrant he never joined the Confederate Army. He had attempted several times to kidnap and eventually assassinate President Lincoln. In 1864 John Wilkes Booth and his fellow conspirators, Lewis Powell, George Atzerodt, John Surratt, David Herold, Michael O’Laughlin and Samuel Arnold planned to kidnap Lincoln, take him to Richmond and exchange him for Confederate soldiers captured in Union prison camps. He believed that regain of soldiers would help increase the decimating ranks of the Confederate Army. Booth and his conspirators failed to kidnap Lincoln on March 17, 1865 in the outskirts of Washington when Lincoln’s plan to attend the play, Still Waters Run Deep at Campbell Hospital was canceled. In April 14, 1865 he assassinated Abraham Lincoln at Ford’s Theater. When he heard from Henry Clay Ford that President Lincoln would be attending the play, Our American Cousin he planned to assassinate Lincoln at 10: 15 P.M. which was when the greatest laughter would take place. He and his co-conspirators also planned to assassinate William Seward, the Secretary of State, and Vice President Andrew Johnson. After the assassination he ran for 12 days with a broken leg, and settled in Richard H. Garrett’s tobacco barn located in Port Royal, Virginia. On April 26, the farm was set on fire by the Union cavalry, and Booth was shot by Boston Corbett. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">**<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Why is this person remembered/known? ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">John Wilkes Booth was remembered for his devotion towards the South and slavery, but mostly for the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. I think Booth’s philosophies and reasons for assassinating Lincoln were what he was truly remembered for. Like his father, John Wilkes Booth was a truly eccentric person, and looking at his family and educational background, it seemed very unlikely for him to support the South and slavery; his family was loyal to the Union (North), and he was deeply religious (he was also educated in a school run by Quakers).

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">**<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Was your person a hero or a celebrity? What do you think it means to be a hero? What do you think it means to be a celebrity? Was your person a "hero" or a “celebrity”? Why? How is a hero different from a celebrity? ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">To be a hero means he/she stood up to achieve deeds that upheld and satisfied the wish of a certain group. In the other hand, to be a celebrity means that he/she has become famous/respected for one’s talented work (ex. literature, art, acting, etc.), looks, or scandalous events. In my opinion, John Wilkes Booth was a hero (he’s not a hero to me, but he was to some); his action reflected the wish of several groups (like his fellow conspirators), and despite the break-up of his family he assassinated Lincoln for what he thought was “the right for the country”. People decide whether the person is a hero or not by judging if he/she has done what they define as “moral” and “righteous” deed; some thought that Booth’s actions were “righteous”, so can’t he be a hero (at least to some)? The difference between a hero and a celebrity lies in the purpose and the outcome of their work; usually a hero carries out deeds that satisfies one’s and other’s mutual goals and wishes, but a celebrity does his/her work for one’s own enjoyment and content that may or may not inspire and satisfy others.

<span style="font-size: 170.4%; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">**Phase 2:** <span style="font-size: 142%; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> **Historical Question** How did he come to be a southern sympathizer and a supporter of slavery? Couldn't have his disposition ultimately led him to assassinate Lincoln? <span style="display: block; font-size: 90%; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left; msobidifontsize: 12.0pt;"> ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Historical Research Guide <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">1. //What is your historical question?// **<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;"> Was John Wilkes Booth a truly ardent supporter of the South, and was that why he assassinated Abraham Lincoln? Other than his devotion toward the South what factors could have caused him to assassinate Abraham Lincoln? <span style="font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">**<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">2. //What information do you expect to find during your research?// ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;"> I wish to find a primary source document written by him about his political views. I also wish to find information about how his family, educational background, and his emotional state could have affected him to assassinate Lincoln. <span style="font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">**<span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">3. //What information resource (s) will you use first to find the answer to your question?// ** <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;"> I would first use Booth’s 21-page manuscript speech (a primary source) to find the answer to my question, and then use secondary sources to analyze how his family, education, and emotion state contributed to the occurrence of Lincoln’s assassination.

__J.W.B, November, 1864 In a letter to his brother-in-law__ "This country was formed for the white not for the black man. And looking upon African slavery from the same stand-point, as held by those noble framers of our Constitution, I for one, have ever considered it, one of the greatest blessings (both for themselves and us) that God ever bestowed upon a favored nation." <span style="display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">"Our country owed all her troubles to him, and God simply made me the instrument of his punishment" "Now, by God! I'll put him through. That is the last speech he will ever make."
 * Quotes**

__From J.W.B.'s 21-page manuscript speech__ "Men have no right to entertain opinions which endanger the safety of the county. Such men I call traitors and treason should be stamped to death and not allowed to stalk aboard in any land. So deep is my hatred for such men that I could wish I had them in my grasp and I the power to crust"

"Do you not call it treason for men to entertain and advocate opinions which are hurtful to their county. Which will destroy her peace and her prosperity. Do you not call it treason, aye. Then what are they who preach the abolition doctrine who have in doing so nigh destroyed our county. I call them traitors."

"You have not aided her or even heeded her cries, because you have thought I am not a southern man, it hurst not me."

"You have commenced to feel that you are southern men. Youf ind now that your interests are as much south as north, what destroys her institutions and happiness will destroy your own"

"The laws have not been enforced that would protect southern rights, others have been passed to infringe rights, she has called for jutice in vain; we of the north have promised and promised by that has been all. at length she pleads no more os agains we promise, will she have faith inour empty words, can she turst them without a proof they will be kept. No and if she can she deserves her fate"

"Oh my friends you think not of their situation. You are troubled but will not act." "But I could with you would prove to the south, with deeds, instead of words, that she shall have those rights she demands, those rights which are her due."

"There is a time when men should act for themselves and not under the guidance of a few political leaders who use them only for their own ends, I tell you sirs when treason weighs heavy in the scale, it is time for us to throw off all gentler feeling of our natures and summon resolution, pride, justice…"

"An abolition crew, who have naught to lose – no – not even love of country- in this great crush of states. The south is leaving us… Weep fellow countrymen, for the brightest half of our star upon the nations banner have grown dim"

"I tell you the abolition doctrine is the fire which if allowed to rage –w ill consume the house and crush us all beneath its ruins. Shall we my brothers be destroyed on account of these abolition leaders, the mass!"

"First I know that the south has a right according to the constution to keep and hold them. And we have no right under the constitution to keep and hold them"

"It is not a sin. I have been through the whole south and have marked the happiness of master and of man. Take every individual and you will find the happiness greater there than here. True I have seen the black man whipped but only when he deserved much more than he received"
