(03-28-2017 08:13 AM)RJNorton Wrote: About the visitor, Weichmann wrote that when the detectives had departed on the morning of April 15th Anna Surratt cried out, "Oh, Ma! Mr. Weichmann is right; just think of that man (John W. Booth) having been here an hour before the assassination. I am afraid it will bring suspicion upon us." Roger, Anna knew Booth very, very well, even had a photo of him hidden and was "very interested" in him. Why should she exclaim "just think of THAT man". Seems to me she was pointing to a stranger. Could it be Richard Smoot, who was at 9.30 pm (an hour before the assassination) in the boardinghouse? |
