Richard R. Montgomery

Has anyone researched this guy? Did he live in Philadelphia?
I believe that he was said to be a Double Agent. If so, who accused him of the Perjury? I think his comments in Court were concerned with the participation of the Confederate Government in the Assassination Plots. What can you tell us about this mess?

I believe that he actually carried Confederate mail to Canada, but would stop off in the North to let the Feds read the "news". Being called a "Double Agent" is stretching the facts. He may have been an energetic "Mail Man" for the South, but he wasn't a trustworthy Agent.
