McKinley Assassination Attempt at Pan American Exposition
The report recounts President William McKinley's shooting at the Pan American Exposition in Buffalo. He remained calm, was wounded twice, and was moved to Milburn residence as doctors probed for a concealed bullet. Leon Czolgosz, an anarchist, confessed partial guilt claiming Emma Goldman’s influence, while crowds swarmed and authorities protected the scene.
