RE: Did JWB visit Mary's boarding house after the assassination?
So, in reading through this thread, on the night of the assassination (prior to?), we potentially have the following visiting the Surratt Boarding house:

John Wilkes Booth (per Weichmann story)
Captain Scott (per Miss Jenkins who said he delivered papers for her)
Mr. Smoot (who himself said he was a visitor)
Mr. Kirby (who Mrs. Surratt is reported to have told Mrs. Holohan had been a visitor)

But several report the doorbell only rang once. Hmmm...Somebody, or more likely several people, are not telling the whole truth.

Am I correct with those listed above? Sounds more like grand central station than a boarding house!
