Words from Dr. Richard Mudd

[RJNorton]

Here are the words of Dr. Richard Mudd when he was 98 years old. Thanks to the folks on the forum who posted that a cassette could be made into a .mp3 file I was able to contact someone who transferred Richard Mudd's words to a CD. I must thank a lady named Stacy Nelson who sent me the cassette back in 1999. The statement goes for about 30 minutes and lots of names are mentioned.

I thought one of the more interesting things Richard Mudd had to say regarded the supplies George Atzerodt said were sent by Booth to Dr. Mudd's. Richard Mudd says that these supplies actually went to Dr. George Mudd's home, not Samuel Mudd's. George Mudd was a cousin of Samuel Mudd.
