Chaos. How do we know it was Mary Lincoln who dropped these glasses? Roger, I presume that the opera glasses must have been found in the presidential theater box. "Captain James McCamly returned Mrs. Lincoln's opera glasses, which were found when his detachment secured the theater." "So very difficult a matter is it to trace and find out the truth of anything by history." -- Plutarch |
