That is what Booth told Chester - but was it true? Did he come back from Montreal and cover his tracks by saying he was in Boston?

I'm just wondering why only 2 nondescript people claim to have seen him in Boston and only after he became the most famous man in the country.

Maybe Booth got his reputation as being good with a gun from this possibly non-existent event. I mean why 'shoot between' your legs if you're only showing off to one person? I would think Booth would demand a bigger audience then that.
