RE: Booth's Escape Route
Quote:I think that with Lew Powell, it was simply an error of misjudgement, youth and immaturity Needless to say I have disagreed with Betty on this point from the first moment I heard it. To say this implies that Powell was caught up in something greater than his ability to reason, and that's just wrong. Powell knew exactly what he was doing from the moment he received his assignment from Booth. As I've stated several times before, the only thing which kept Powell from being a cold-blooded killer is that Seward et al survived. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
