Surratt again faces indictment in Lincoln assassination case
Reports from Washington describe a fresh indictment against John Surratt as an accessory rather than a principal in Lincoln's murder. He remains in jail under comfortable conditions as committees in Congress discuss impeachments, tariffs, taxation, and the Reconstruction bill. News notes cover Grant’s western trip, U.S. colored troops deployment, and a Georgia discharge case, with local Wisconsin items and Minnesota murder rumors tied to a family massacre involving Elisha Davis and Winegardner.
