Frank Ford Letter

[J Hewitt]

Good Morning.

I was just wondering what the concensus view of the Frank Ford Letter that states his father (John T) bore the hole in the door (or had it done), to the Presidential Box, so that the guard could look in on the President without having to open the door.

I thought most historians believed that Booth himself bored the hole in the door.
