Charles Sabin Taft était un médecin qui se trouvait sur les lieux lors de l'assassinat d'Abraham Lincoln le 14 avril 1865, au Ford's Theatre à Washington, D.C., et qui fut amené à soigner le président peu après l'attentat.
Assassinat d'Abraham Lincoln
En avril 1865, Taft était dans l'assistance présente à la représentation de Our American Cousin, lorsque John Wilkes Booth fit feu sur Lincoln.
Taft fut soit le deuxième, soit le troisième médecin à arriver aux côtés du président après le coup de feu, le premier à arriver étant le tout jeune chirurgien Charles Leale. Taft fut physiquement hissé jusqu'à la loge du président à partir de la scène, située juste en dessous[1].
