Booth's women

[Jenny]

Well, I agree with you, Ernesto, because it’s clear that a lot of falsities exist out there (including, at its worst, at least three imposter John Wilkes Booths!), and you do have to personally decide how much stock you to put into certain claims.

Roger, I think I remember you mentioning on a similar topic that Baker himself actually mentioned having to stop a woman on the ship from cutting off a lock of hair from Booth’s body. I am really rusty on that though so maybe you or someone else can help me out with it. I just swear that there was a reference to a lady on the Montauk that was much closer to the time of the actual assassination instead of in the 1890s. It’s also entirely possible I am completely off track and have a bad memory!
