RE: Interesting Visit
Great research John!

My problem with the photograph is Headley. His book is very self aggrandizing. His self proclaimed actions and involvement in the New York bombings - arson fires, (which was very unsuccessful) were considered then as well as today, not as an honorable act of war, but of terrorism. An act he is quite proud of. Plus his book is written 40 years after the events occurred. (I can understand why) I question his accuracy of many of the events and his involvement in the activities he wrote about. I understand the over exaggeration was quite common with this type of book written after the war.

While I do not question Sarah Slater's involvement and role in providing the documents for the defense of the Vermont Bank Robbers, I question the photo alleged to be of Sara Slater, and the story behind it, based primarily upon Headley's claim and statements. I believe he is an unreliable witness
I am wondering how many of the "Raiders" were alive in 1906 including Rev. Cameron.

I am interested in the source of this statement,
"The Police in Canada and the Confederate Prisoners say "The Picture" is the Lady who attended to the Prisoners. Rev Cameron says that the Lady in the picture, who traveled to Richmond, is Sarah Slater"

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
