On the other hand, it's clear the CSS had a lot of powerful friends in the north beyond just copperheads. Just read a passage from Adam Mayers -. Dixie & the Dominion: Canada, the Confederacy, and the War for the Union. He states that at the famous Parker House recruitment meeting: "(Godfrey) Hyams met Booth there, and a check of hotel registers found that Booth had stayed at the Parker House in Boston along with Hyams, a man registered as H.V. Clinton, and two others giving false names and Canada as their address." Can anyone confirm that Hyams was one of the agents at that meeting? Does anyone know the other false names that were registered. |
