Just the other day, regarding the carrying of Lincoln out of Fords, you mentioned they didn't have a clear destination in mind. Like you, I also find that fact interesting. This situation with the boardinghouse intrigues me, also. Authorities show up at the boardinghouse 4 hours after the assassination. I have never known specifically what caused this to happen. I have wondered if it were John Mathews who gave McDevitt the tip.

Matthews was kind of in the thick of it wasn't he. It must have been a angst filled few days.
