RE: Mudd Descendants visit Fort Jefferson NP
As long as you admit, John, that this is YOUR "rough scenario."

My thoughts are that only Herold spent the night outside of D.C. and that he likely arose about 5 am. A quick ride into the city from T.B. would still take at least two hours, getting him back when the bridge opened at 7 am (if that schedule still existed). My scenario has Booth spending the night in D.C., and I would like to romanticize and think it was spent with Ella. I also do not subscribe to Julia Grant's theory that she was being watched by the gang at lunch. I don't think they were the least bit interested in the distaff side of the Grants.

Again, this is just my theory and I cannot engrave it in stone. IMO, too much speculation has been inserted into the documented history of the assassination over the past 150 years. And, when you take every little incident and try to make it fit into the overall picture, you create a situation where the average person gets totally confused.
