		But Boston Corbett had thwarted their plans and ambitions and all eyes were turned toward, him, for the soldiers who were stationed on his side of the building pointed to the sergeant as the guilty miscreant who fired the fatal bullet, and he was straightway placed under arrest.
		Boston Corbett was induced to promise a lecture, outlining events of the capture and slaying of President Lincoln's assassin, and his experiences in Andersonville prison, where he had spent ten months, and when emerging a physical wreck, he was ordered to the hospital, but against the orders of the surgeon he rejoined his company.
		Corbett was left to enjoy the quiet solitude of his dugout, which was astronghold, ostensibly built with the view of defending himself, as he possessed a small armory that would have stood off a fairly strong siege.

	Dance \| Festive nights
		Corbett’s thematic preoccupations seem to center on an early-postmodern feminism: an inclusive and plainspoken approach to the idea of dancing, a respect for what bodies can do, an avoidance of going overboard with technical or emotional effects.
		Corbett went on to explore the simple question of entrances and exits, until the issue of who would appear and when became quite momentous.
		Corbett’s dance is most engaging, even endearing, when she goes all out with the idea that any person can be a dancer.

	The Lamp of Psyche by Edith Wharton : Arthur's Classic Novels (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Delia Corbett was not in the habit of using what the French call gros mots in the rendering of her own emotions; she took herself, as a rule, rather flippantly, with a dash of contemptuous pity.
		Corbett personified all those finer amenities of mind and manners which may convert the mere act of being into a beneficent career; to Delia he seemed the most admirable man she had ever met, and she would have thought it disloyal to her best aspirations not to admire him.
		Corbett, as he kissed her hand, assured her that he had known it was only nervousness; and after dinner, during which he made himself excep- tionally agreeable, he proposed their ending the evening at the Palais Royal, where a new play was being given.

	A. Boyer Remembers Boston Corbett
		He disclaimed nervousness and excitability on that occasion, and said that Booth had a gun in his hand and was preparing to fire on the soldiers and he anticipated Booth, and he only shot to save some soldier’s life.

	Boston Corbett Forger Remembered (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Few characters in the field of Lincolniana are more genuinely strange than Thomas P. “Boston” Corbett (1832-?), a cavalryman with Company L of the 16th New York Cavalry who claimed he fired the shot that killed John Wilkes Booth on the night of April 24, 1865.
		The bizarre Corbett tale took another strange twist in 1905 in Dallas, when a man claiming to be him was tried for perjury on October 16 in the U.S. District Court in San Angelo, Texas and sentenced the next day to three years’ hard labor in the federal penitentiary in Atlanta and a $100 fine.
		His age is recorded as 50 (Corbett would have been 73 in 1905), his residence as Ohio (where Corbett never lived), his occupation as trapper (Corbett’s supposed venison-supplying career comes close).
