RE: Where was John Surratt on April 14, 1865 ?
Roy Chamlee writes:
"Several witnesses implicated James Jarboe, alias Smith, a Rebel mail carrier and friend of both John Surratt and George Atzerodt. It was Jarboe who had refused Atzerodt's request for lodging. Jarboe's associate, Annie Mitchell, also served the Confederate cause." I am certainly no expert on Atzerodt's exact movements during his departure from Washington, but I do not think I have previously seen Jarboe's house mentioned as a place Atzerodt sought shelter and was turned away. Is this historically correct (what Chamlee writes)? |
