Assassination of Vresidesit JLIn colti Confession of tiro of tlie Prisoners. Now that the trial of John Surratt for participation in the assassination of Mr. Lincoln has b?cn thrown out of Court through the technicalities of the law, and he is announced as preparing for the press a narrative of the whole transaction it may serve a good purpose to give publicity to the following statement of Samuel 1. Arnold, one of the prisoners atthe Dry Tortugas, made in Baltimore voluntarly, four days alter the assassination. We al so give the" confession of Atzcrodt,. mr.de in his cell on the night before the execu tion. Both of these confessions we have in our possession in the handwriting of the prisoners, and they have hitherto not been made public under the expectation that they would be used in the trial of John Surratt. The confession of Arnold was mado in the office of Marshall McPhail, on the 18th of April, 1SG5, immediately on his being brought to this city from Fortr ess Monroe. He sat down at a desk and voluntarily wiotc it without any questioning. The confession of Atzerodt was made in his cell, at Washington, cn the night before his execution. He asked for pa per, and it is written with a lead pencil, the disconnected manner of it indicating the state of mind of the prisoner : CONFESSION OF SAMUEL Ii. ARNOLD, MADE APRIL IS, 18G5. To "Whom it May Concern : Know that I, Samuel B. Arnold, about the latter part of August or firt part of September, 136 -I. was sent fev by J. Wilkes Booth, who was a guest at Barnum's Ho tel, in the city of Baltimore, Md., to call and see him. I had not seen the same J. Wilkes Booth since 1852, when we both were schoolmates at St. Timothy's Hall. President L. Van Bukelin then having said liali as a place of tuition. His recep tion of me was warm. Calling for wine and cigars, we conversed a short time upon our former school-boy days. Wo were in terrupted by a knock at the door, when Michael O'Laughlin was ushered in. Af ter a formal introduction, we sat sipping our wine, and all three smoked a cigar. During saaoking, lie having heard pre viously of my political feelings or ccnii mcnts, he spoke in glowing terms of the Confederacy and the number of surplus prisoners in th e hands of the United States. Then ensued the proposition by J. Wilkes Booth, and which he (J. Wilkes Beoth thoualit could be aeeomnllslipd 1j . 1 viz : of kidnapping President Lincoln, as lie Iro'juently went unguaruetl out to tne Soldier's Home ; and he thought could be picked up, carried off to Bichmond, and fur his exchange produce the exchange for the President of all the prisoners in the IVderal hand.. He, J. Wilkes Booth, the originator of the scheme, aked if we would enter into it. After painting the chances of success in such glowing colors, wc consented, viz : Michael O'Laughlin and myself. We were bound not to divulge it to a living soul. I saw him once more in Baltimore, and then he, (J. Wilkes Booth) left ti ar range his business up North, hrst to New York, thence to the Oil llegions, and from there to Boston, and finally to Canada. He was to be back in a month.' I re ceived a letter, which I destroyed, stating that he was laid up with erysipelas in his arm, and as scon as he was able he would be with us. Months rolled around, and he did net make his appearance until some tic:e in Januarj'. In his trunk he had two guns, cap cartridges," which were laced in the gun-stocks Spencer riiles I think they were called revolvers, knives, bolts, cartridge-boxes, cartridges, caps, canteens all fully fixed for service which were to be used in case of pursuit, and two pair of handcuffs to handcufF the President. His trunk being so hcavv, he gave the pistols, knives and handcuffs- to Michael O'Laughlin and myself, to' have shipped or brought to Washington. He then returned from Washington, to which place he had gone, bought a horse, har ness and! buggy wagon, leaving the team, etc., with us to drive on to Washington. We started from Baltimore about twelve or one o'clock, after Laving shipped the box containing the knives, handcuffs and pis tols, arriving in "Washington about seven or half-past seven in the same evening. We met him on the street as we were pas sing the theater. Wc alighted, took a drink, and he told us of the theater plan slightly, saying he would wait until we put the liorfce away, and tell us more fully. He hid previously, as I now remember, spoken of the chancc3 at the theater if we could not succeed in the other plan at the Soldier's Home. We went to the theater that night, he (J. "Wilkes Booth), telling us about the different back entrances, and how feasible the plan was. He had ren ted a stable in the rear of the theater, having bought two horses down the coun try. One was in the stable behind the theater, the other at the livery. Met him next day ; went together to breakfast with hiui..- He was always pressed with basi net with a man unknown to us theu, by the name of John Surratt ; most of his (Booth's) time was spent with him. We were left entirely in the dark. Michael O'Laughlin and myself rented a room on V f-trcvt No. 2K, and obtained meals at the Franklin Hou.--e, at the cor ner 01 .D and Eighth streets. We thus lived for nearly two months, seeing him perhaps three" or.- four times' during the week, and when seen,-always but for a short time, having still pressing business always on hand, viz : to see John Surratt. Michael O'Laughlin and myself drove out occasionally, the horse livered at Mr. Nail or's stable. We drove always (but once) in city and Georgetown; the onceexcepted across the Eastern Branch Bridge, when we went upwards of five miles, I suppose, and returned. This was the only time I ever went over that bridge. How oflcn J. Wilkes Booth crossed I cannot state, but ffom ..his o wnrwm ds, -ofteg JIJjus Michael O'Laughlin's and my time spent for the most part down at Kullman's Hotel (now Sinclair House), on Pennsyl vania avenue and Louisiana avenue, in drinking and amusements, with other Bal temoreans besides ourslcves congregated all of whom knew nothing of selling oil stock. Oil stock was the blind for them as well as my family. During- the latter part of March., whilst standing On Hull- A. ' man s porca, v o'clock, r, M., 1 :twecn eleven and twelve young man g man name , un- known, as I cannot retueaioer about five feet or six inches hi names- 1 th set, long nose, sharp chin, wide cheeks, small eyes (gray, I think), darK hair and well dressed color I don't remember called Michael O'Laughlin aside, and said J. Vv ilkes Booth wished to us both at Gctier's saloon on see the avenue. I was then for the first time introduced., to him but forget las name. We walked up together. Mike O'Laughlin, this unknown and myself were ushered into the presence of J. "Wilkes Booth, who introduced me to John Surratt, Atzerott, alias Port Tobacco, , alias Moseby, making in all seven persons. J. Wilkes Booth had sent word to Michael O'Laughlin to bring me up in a good hu mor (still always in the dark). Then commenced tlie plan for seizing the Presi dent. Each had his part to perform. First, I was to run into the box and seize the President, whilst Atzerodt, alias Port Tubacco and J. Vv" ilkes Booth were to handcufF hini and lower him on the stage, whilst Moseby was to catch him and hold him till we got down. Surratt and the unknown were to be on the other side of the Eastern Branch bridge to facilitate escape. It was iftrwuroS clianged fro Moseby and Booth to catch him in the box and to lower him to me on the stage. O' Laughlin and the unknown were to put the lights out, and Surratt and Atzerodt, alias Port Tobacco, to be on the other side of the bridge. I was opposed to the whole proceeding, and said it could not be ac complished. If ever which was an im possibility, we could get him out of tlie box and to the bridge, -we would bo "Stop ped by the sentinel. '"Shoot the sentinel," said Booth. I said that would not do, for if ar. alarm vrrs given there the' whole thing was up, and, as for me, I wanted the hadow of a chance -for escape and success. Michael O'Laughlin wanted to argue the same way. whereupon J. "Wilkes Booth said. "You find fault with every thing concerned about it." I said no; that I wanted to have a change, and I in tended to have it ; that he' could be the leader, of the party, but not my execution er. Whereupon J. Wilkes Booth remark ed, in a stern, commanding and angry voice, "Bo you know you are liable to "be shot ? remember your oath." I told him the plan or basis had changed, and a com pact on the part of one broken is broken by alL If you feel inclined to shoot me you have no further to go, I shall defend myself. This, if I remember aright, was on Friday, or may be a Thursday night,' when I said, geutlemen, if this is not ac complished this week I forever withdraw from it. I stayed up till about six or seven o'clock next morning, Friday or Saturday, and then went to bed. I remained in doors until twelve, when I arose and went to get my breakfast. Michael O'Laughlin and myself roomed together, both arose at the same time, and were always, in a meas ure together. Went to bod that evening about 7 1 o'clock. This day that I went to bed so early we met about 2 o'clock or thereabouts; told me I spoke angrily the said 1 nad been drink- O O J in l tola nun no I'was in my sober senses, and meant every word I said ; if not accomplished this week I withdraw. Next day tae thing was to be accomplished on the Seventh street road and failed. On Sunday I stayed in Washington, and on Monday or Tuesday I returned to the city of Baltimore, and thence to Hookstown. J. Wilkes Booth in the meantime went to New York, and returned to Baltimore du ring the week, cn Saturday, T think. He said he wished to see me on very urgent business, and my father sent forme... I came from the country and he had gone to -Washington,- whereupon I wrote him the letter which was found in his trunk. The Richmond authorities, as far as I know, knew nothing of the conspiracy. ., The let ter was written after my return to the country, after finding he could not wait to see me in Baltimore During the week I came to the city and met Michael O'Laug lin, who asked me to go to Washington with him to finally arrange his affairs. I went in the morning Friday, I think and returned same evemng home, having cut loose forever frem it. Next day I re ceived a letter from J. W. Wharton, at Fortress Monroe, giving me cmplyymcnt. Went to the country, got my clothing, and on Saturday, the 1st day of April, left Baltimore for Fortress Monroe, at which place I have remained, never correspond ing with Booth or seeing him from the above named date to the present writing. The ground work was to kidnap the Pres ident without violence. He never to me said that he would kill him. Further than this I know nothing, and am innocent of i ot having taken any active part in the dark deed committed. Samuel B. Arnold. : THE PLAN OF ESCAPE ' Was to place "Mr. Lincoln in the buggy pjj'-yllftsod for: that r purpose, and . cross Eastern Branch Bridge. Surratt and Atzerodt, alias Port Tobacco, were to fol low them to where he had a boat conceal ed"; turn the horse 1 xse ; place the Presi dent in the boat, and cross ihe Potomac to the Virginia shore, and thence to make our way to Bichmond. Surratt knew the route, and was to act as pilot. Samuel B. Arnold. A box painted black, like unto a sword box, was sent by Booth from the hotel by the porter there to our room. The next day it was transferred in a wagon, O' Laughlin acting pilot, to some place. I was not present. After giving the box to the driver, went to Georgetown, and O' Laughlin had the full charge of it. M. O'Laughlin said he took it to Mr. Heard's, and from thence the unknown carried it home. Took the guns out and carried them to Pedec. This latter clause Booth told me. Samuel B. Arnold. Witness : V. Randill, E. G. Horner. Baltimore, April ISth, 18C5. Note Besides this written statement of Arnold's, he verbally communicated the fact that Booth was the correspondent of Doctors Mudd, Garland and Queeu. This fact was told the Secretary when I pre sented him Arnold's statement. coneession oi- atzerodt. I had not seen John Surratt for about eight days before the murder. Booth told me a few days before the murder that he was in Washington. Kate Thompson, alias. Brown, came from llichmoud with John Surratt about the time that Bich mond fell. He had come previously with Gustavus Howell, now in the Old Capital Prison. Kate Thompson stopped at Mrs. Surratt's, and also at the National and Hinidl Hotels. Thia wotaan was about 21 years of age, spruce and neat, medium size, blaci eyes, and fair complexion. She had a sister in New York, who,-it was said, was a widow. Surratt was made known to her in New York by a signal conveyed by a small switch. with a waxed end and a piece of red ribbon on the butt, handled horrizontaily through the fingers. This sign was given on a hotel pavement on Broadway. He went with her South, and hired a horse at Howard's stables for the purpose. Harold, came to (lie Kirk wood House and left the knife, pistol and coat, on the evening of the murder, about half-past six o'clock, as I was about leaving, I having told the clerk to tell whoever might call that 1 was gone. out. This was before Harold came in, . Harold and I then went to the Ilerndou House, Mrs. Murray's, corner of Ninth and F streets. It was theu about eight o'clock, and saw Booth, Wood and Payne in AYood's room. .Here the proposed murder was first mentioned. I refused to take part in it, when Booth eaid, " SlThon we will do it, but what will become of you? .You had better come along and get your horse." I then left them and went to the Oyster Bay on the avenue, and stayed some time ; then to the stable anil got my horse and went up to D street. This was about. ten o'clock.. I called at the Ilinnell House and got a drink. I saw none of the party after we separated about nine o'clock that evening. I then went out to C street toward the Baltimore depot ; went between the old and new Capitol; came on the avenue again, and " concluded to come back. I rode down the avenue and the cavalry were dashing by me. This Wa3 the first I heard of the murder. I then went up Eighth street, left the horse at the stable opposite the Franklin House, and then went to the Herndon House,- arid heard a little boy talking about the murder. I then took a car and went towards the Na vy Yard. ;- This was about 11 o'clock, and 1 met two young' men named' Briscoe and J Spates, with whom I had 'some talk. Al ter walking some distance I took a car to the cornerof Sixth street and Pennsylva nia avenue. Here I met a man inquiring place to sleep at. I took him around to the Rinnel House, and we retired to one room with six beds in it. I left early next morning and passed through Georgetown on my way to-Montgomery county. No one left the hotel with me. I saw Mike O'Laughlin about a week before the President-was killed. - I never wanted O'Laugalin and Arnold's aid ; met O'Laughlin once : or twice at Smithard's, and a few times in the street. When we were at Murray's, on the night of the murder,. Harold said he had a letter from a printerto Andy Johnson. lie said he was going to give it to him, . and he I wanted me to give him the key ot my rooni, which I refused to do. Previous to the arrangment.for the mur der liooth heard that the President was to visit a camp. The, coach was to be taken out Seventh street. Surratt was to jump cn the box as he was the best driver, and drive through Old Fields to the Long! Bridge. This was about the middle oil 3iareh. O LaughHn, Samuel Arnold, Payne, Surratt, Booth, Atzerodt and Har old went to the Long Bridge with two car bines, and were to wait for us. They did so until midnight and returned to Wash ington next morning. This failed. All was quiet then for some time. Booth went to New York, Arnold to Baltimore, O' Laughlin also, and Payne left for New York. After this Howell brought a wo man accross the Potomac. Howell was made prisoner, and Surratt took her North, about a week before the murder. Booth told me that Surratt was in the Herndon House; the night of the mufder,lhe"l fth of April, we were not altogether at the Hern don House. Booth told me Surratt was to help at the box, that he expected oth ersinthebox. Booth went from the Hern don House down Ninth street. The words of Booth were "I saw Surratt a few months ago." All the parties appeared to be en gaged at something on that night, and were not together. Booth appointed me and Harold to kill Johnson, and in going down the street I told Booth we ccuid not do it. Booth said Harold had more cour age and he would do it. Harold and I were on Pennsylvania avenue together. I told him I would not do it. and should not go to my room for fear he would disturb Mr. Johnson. He left me to go for Booth. This was after nine o'clock. I went to the Oyster Bay, and Harold came in and said that Booth wanted to see me. Harold Lft me here. I promised to get my horse and come. I was not at the Kirkwocd House after two o'clock. I have no rec collcctiou of being there afk'r that. I had nothing to say at any of the meetings. One of the attempts was at the theater: the gass was to be put out, &c. No dis cussion was had about failure, and what to do in that case. Tlie coil of rope at Lloyd's was to stretch across the road to trip the cavalry. I know nothing about Spanglcr's rope ; I believe him innocent. Booth told me an actor was to be the best assistant in the theater to turn off the gas. Arnold and O'Laughlin were to grab the President and take him off; and Booth said, when applied to for money, he would go to New York and get some, as he had it there. Mrs. Surratt, Mrs. Slater, Ma jor Benon and John Surratt left Washing ton together ; got jhum:) ut, iiuw.ir.iv. Mrs. S. stopped at Surrattsville. John Surratt and Mrs. Slater crossed, and Ban on and Mr3. Surratt came back. Banon was in the Rebel army. I don't think Banon knew any thing about the Conspi racy. I sold a horse for Booth and thought the affair was about over. The murder was broached first on the 14th, at night, when Harold came for me. I did hear Booth -say Lincoln ought to be killed. A widow woman was living near Mr. Sew ard's, and Booth said by her iifiuence he could get entrance to Seward's house ; through her influence with the chamber maid and house servant. The girl at the house was good-looking and knew the wid ow. Iiarborn was into it first; lie came to Port Tobacco for n;e" with John Surratt during the winter. The boat was at the head of Goose Creek and moved to Nan jemo' Creek. It was a lead-colored flat bottom boat, and will carry fifteen men. This boat was bought of Jas. Brawner, the old man. Mrs. Slater went with Booth a good deal. Hotel. She stopped at the National Everybody knows good counsel ex cept him who hath need of it. The fate of a child is the work of its mother. .
