Powell's Remains

[Thomas Thorne]

The specter of Lew Wallace meeting JWB is too good to be true. Betty O writes an honest book about LTP and keeps her day job. Someone writes about Abraham Lincoln fighting vampires and makes a fortune.

Maybe we'll see a book called "Billy the Kid meets Lincoln" in which we find Billy as a precocious 5 year old acting as a look out for the conspirators as part of a Faginesque gang of street urchins recruited by John Wilkes Booth. Perhaps this was the "New York crowd" alluded to by George Atzerodt.

I fell asleep 10 minutes into the Mexican epic "Billy the Kid meets Dracula" in which Dracula-AKA John Carradine who played Lincoln in "Of Human Hearts" and spares James Stewart from a firing squad-takes refuge in a wagon train after seducing and killing an Indian princess with her tribe in hot pursuit.

Does this mean Lincoln became a vampire after his death and Stanton hushed it up?
