I know a lot about the Lincoln assassination.
Give me a fact that most people may not know?
President Lincoln didn't die instantly. He died nine hours later. I'm not American, so that may be commonly taught to kids in the USA - but I remember being surprised by this when I learned about it as an adult.
He was shot around 10:15 pm on April 14 and died across the street at 7:22 am on April 15.
