Answer:

The author thinks that Lincoln will die from his gun shot wounds but thinks that Seward will survive his knife wounds

Explanation:

In the narration of events that happened on that night, the author expresses his thoughts vividly on the present state of the President and that of his Secretary of State.

In the words of the author, "the pistol ball entered the back of the President's head. The wound is mortal. The President has been insensible ever since it was inflicted, and is now dying".

A mortal wound is one that results to death. The author also said that the President is dying.

Regarding Seward, the author thinks that he may survive the knife wounds. He expressed this when he said this about the knife wounds, "it is hoped it the wounds may not be mortal". Though the author expressed fears it could be worse, but he sounded more hopeful for Seward than the President.

There would be no powerful will bending hers in that blind persistence with which men and women believe they have a nght to impose a private will upon a fellow creature.

Explanation:

The two excerpts above impose a sense of knowledge, power and freedom. This is because we can see that the above excerpt shows a narrator free to act, feel and think according to his own conception and his own principles, using his own opinions. This ability is achieved when an individual is able to free himself from an interminably limiting and weighting oppression.
