RE: Did JWB visit Mary's boarding house after the assassination?
This may be a minor point........If my feeble old mind serves me right, Booth's mare was high strung. I believe somewhere there is the comment that the horse could not be tied because she would break the reigns and possibly take off. Unless the Surratt Boarding House had valet parking, Booth would have had to find someone to hold the horse, consuming more valuable time. I fall into the camp that he made some level of preparations for his flight and had extra firearms, hat, Old Spice deodorant, and a change of socks in his saddlebags.
