    Atzerodt, along with John Wilkes Booth, David Herold and Lewis Powell (Payne), were to carry out the planned assassinations of President Abraham Lincoln, Vice President Andrew Johnson, and Secretary of State William Seward on the night of April 14, 1865.
    Atzerodt was to assassinate Vice-President Andrew Johnson, but ultimately lost his nerve.
    Michael O'Laughlin

    , who was hanged on July 7, 1865 for his role in the Lincoln conspiracy plot.
    After guiding fellow conspirator Lewis Powell to the home of Secretary of State William H. Seward, whom Powell attempted to kill, Herold fled and met with John Wilkes Booth outside of Washington, D.C. They then proceeded to Surrattsville, Maryland where they picked up weapons that Mary Surratt had left earlier for them at her property. Since Booth had broken his leg earlier in the escape, Herold accompanied him to the home of Dr. Samuel Mudd. After Mudd set Booth's leg, Herold and Booth continued their escape through Maryland and into Virginia, and Herold remained with Booth until the authorities found them.

    He was later brought back to the U.S., tried, and released after a mis-trial.
    He died in 1916.
