Pure WP:ONEEVENT. No other claim to notability than a very minor role in the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Somebody had to be on sentry go, and they happened to be called Silas T Cobb, end of story. TheLongTone (talk) 08:21, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge/Redirect to Assassination of Abraham Lincoln. This article is on a very minor player in that event. It might be worth merging one sentence of text into that article, so that the name is mentioned, but that is the most we should have. Peterkingiron (talk) 00:22, 5 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
