RE: Did JWB visit Mary's boarding house after the assassination?
This discussion seems to support Weichman’s testimony that the visitor was at Mary Surratt’s boarding house before the assassination. That helps answer the original question for this thread. Therefore, can we assume that Weichman was telling the truth in that portion of his testimony?
Since he did not identify Booth in the testimony, but did so in his book, Roger’s question is a really good one. In which place did he tell the truth? Seems like there would have been no more certain way to send Mary Surratt to the gallows than for Weichman to identify Booth as the much discussed visitor that night, right before the assassination. But he didn’t. Instead he writes about it later in his book. Interesting, paradox. Was his personal view of his role enriched by time, as he wrote his book? |
