RE: Where was John Surratt on April 14, 1865 ?
The hotel bookkeeper testified that Surratt left the hotel at 2:45 on April 12 (see p. 167 of volume 1 of John Surratt's trial transcript).
As for April 18, the bookkeeper testified that the only entry was for Surratt's arrival and that he left the hotel "instantly," although the bookkeeper acknowledged that he might have stayed there longer without his knowing it. John Surratt himself said in his Rockville lecture that he left at nightfall on April 18. Weichmann in his book also said that Surratt left in the evening on April 18. https://books.google.com/books?id=r3IDAA...e&q&f=true (Sorry, I'm trying to link to page 167 but Google Books isn't cooperating with me.) |
