An eyewitness to President Lincoln's assassination appeared on television in 1956

An eyewitness to President Lincoln's assassination appeared on television in 1956 "In 1956, on an episode of then-popular game show 'I've Got a Secret,' 96-year-old Samuel J. Seymour tottered out on stage, sat down gingerly beside the program's host, and proceeded to blow the audience's mind. Over ninety years earlier, he had witnessed the assassination of Abraham Lincoln at Washington D.C.'s Ford Theatre."
