                  That silly shit above the door. As far as the term, I just made it up. Looks like underwear from that era.

                      At 4 AM, David Herold knocked on that very door and told Samuel Mudd that there was a guy outside his house who had a broken leg. When the guy came forward, Mudd learned it was John Wilkes Booth. Booth could barely get through the door, so Mudd had him sit on that couch to examine his leg. To properly set Booth's leg, he went upstairs to wake his daughter, who was sleeping in the bed in the third photo. He explained that he had a patient who needed to use it, so she moved to the bed adjacent so Booth could use hers. They set the leg upstairs.

                      There's a lot of expert carpentry work in the house, too—a couple of chess sets, a bookcase, some tables—made by Mudd himself. Prior to this incident, he had no carpentry experience. When he was convicted and sent to Fort Jefferson, he learned the craft from Ned Spangler, a former stagehand at Ford Theatre.

                      According to basically everyone at the time, Mudd saved a shitload of lives from yellow fever at Fort Jefferson.

                        I always wondered about his conviction as a "co-conspirator" of Booth. Though pardoned, his conviction was never overturned.

                        Mudd must have learned of the assassination but did not report Booth's visit to the authorities for another 24 hours. This fact appeared to link him to the crime, as did his various changes of story under interrogation. A military commission found Mudd guilty of aiding and conspiring in a murder, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment, escaping execution by a single vote.

                        Mudd was pardoned by President Andrew Johnson and released from prison in 1869. Despite repeated attempts by family members and others to have it expunged, his conviction was never overturned.

                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                          He was convicted largely because he lied about not knowing who Booth was, and during the trial, they called him on it. That led the jury to believe he was probably in on more than he let on.

                          He was also a known Southern sympathizer according to many, although no one could provide any material evidence to that effect. Literally all they had on him was another rifle beside his own that was a Confederate carbine, given to him as a gift. That, fixing Booth's leg and lying about knowing him was all their evidence he was part of the plot.

                          Though pardoned, his conviction was never overturned.

                          The family continues to try to overturn it because the trial was in their eyes illegal. They tried a civilian in a military court.

                          Both Carter and Clinton said that because Jackson pardoned Mudd, there was nothing further the Executive Branch could do.

                            His name is Mudd...

                            ETA: At the time he stabilized Booth's leg, he was unaware that Booth was the assassin, wasn't he?

                            But yeah, the later statements were damning.

                              Correct. But he learned of it between that time and the time he was questioned by Union soldiers. So yeah he lied his ass off.

                                        My guess was it was a miniature house with pictures to make it seem like it's at least.... 3 times as big.
