RE: Booth's field glass
The field glass was described as distinctive in that they had settings for field, marine and theater use. Twenty-nine years later, Richard Baynham Garrett described the glasses as follows:
“When Mr. Boyd retired we assisted him to undress. My childish curiosity was attracted to a belt containing two big pistols and a pearl handled revolver, which he hung on the bedpost. A pair of pearl opera glasses were also laid on a chair.” |
