But i wonder if the cover is correct. Did Booth wear a hat when he shot Lincoln? One would think that with the jump from the box and the frantic escape, it would have fallen off.

Good question, Dan - and one we've asked before! We think that he had one packed perhaps in his saddlebag IF he carried those! Too bad for Powell that he didn't think to do the same!

Which got us off on another subject! Time for another new thread!
