RE: General Thomas Eckert
Welcome to the forum, Tommy. I think one of the most interesting things about Eckert is (are?) his visits to Lewis Powell when Powell was being held aboard the Saugus. Stanton directed Eckert to visit and talk to Powell about the plot to assassinate Lincoln, Seward, etc. Powell made some revealing comments to Eckert. As far as I know, the best account of the Eckert-Powell meetings is in Bates' book that Laurie mentioned above.
