Read this section from *Chasing Lincoln's Killer* by James L. Swanson: "On the night of April 11, a torchlight parade of a few thousand people, with bands and banners,
assembled on the semi-circular driveway in front of the Executive Mansion. This time Lincoln
delivered a long speech, without gloating over the Union victory. He intended to prepare the
people for the long task of rebuilding the South. When someone in the crowd shouted that he
couldn't see, the President Lincoln's son, Tad, volunteered to illuminate his father. When Lincoln
dropped each page of his speech to the floor it was Tad who scooped them up."

Which of these inferences about Booth is best supported by the text above?

(A) Being around postwar celebrations in Washington further fueled his rage toward Lincoln.
(B) It was completely accidental that he found himself in the same city as Lincoln at the end of the war.
(C) He detested that the Lincolns were seeing a piece of theater that was as worthless as *An American Cousin.*
(D) He was emblematic of many actors and artists who strongly supported the Confederacy during the war.
