In post #3, I mention the Greenes' home, originally the Van Ness Mansion, and the theory that a kidnapped Lincoln might have been taken there. I also wonder if it could have been a staging point for the project to mine the White House. Thomas Harney was not captured with enough ammo to blow up one wing. Could Confederate agents and supporters have been storing up additional powder and appliances within the city? The Greenes were definitely Confederate supporters and they were in close proximity to the White House. |
