New York Times: "In a Father’s Clutter, Historic Oddities," August 21, 2008.

Does anyone know what happened to Lattimer's research papers? He refers to diagrams of Seward's house in
Kennedy and Lincoln: Medical & Ballistic Comparisons of Their Assassinations.
"It is apparent, from studying diagrams of the Seward house and testimony about the attack, that the door through which the would-be assassin entered must have been the same wall against which the head of the bed rested."
The Pelz diagram of Seward's third floor in the
Evening Star seems to have the door at right angles to Seward's bed.
