What happened at Secretary of State Seward's residence on the night of the assassination?

Explanation:
This item tests your recall of the events surrounding the assassination night, specifically what happened at Secretary of State Seward’s residence. Lewis Powell forced his way into Seward’s home and attacked the secretary, injuring Seward and several others. Seward survived the injuries after a difficult recovery. This is distinct from Booth’s killing of Lincoln at Ford’s Theatre, which is why the idea that Booth attacked Seward is incorrect. There was no fire at the residence, and Seward was harmed, so the choice stating he was not harmed is false.
