I think you were referring to Major Rathbone who was cut with a knife from Booth.
Let me check and verify this and i will get back to you and reveal my sources.
As you know Booth being an actor was very familiar with Ford's Theater. Booth also knew in advance that Grant would not be attending. From my understanding Booth was somewhat upset that Grant would not be joining Lincoln at the Theater, as he had also planned on killing him. These events took place quickly but so did the gossip in Washington city.
