Steve, please correct me if I am misstating something here. You used the phrase "by those on the Montauk." To me this implies there were multiple folks on the Montauk who said "right leg." My memory is as follows: it was only one single man, Dr. John Frederick May, who mistakenly noted it was Booth's right leg that was broken, not his left.

Roger,

You are correct. Rather than look up who said it (Dr. May), which has led to other theorists claiming it wasn't JWB, I lazily just threw in the Montauk party. I believe there were also other claims and points in the pursuit of JWB where right or left was an issue, as in the examination of David E. George, the Enid mummy.
