James P Ferguson, witness to the assassination

[Jim Garrett]

An awful lot of people recognized JWB, so while Ferguson did give the most detailed account, numerous others also provided strong positive identification.

The Reward was established for the capture of the conspirators and not for the identification. Since JWB was already identified before the reward offer was issued, Ferguson probably would not have been a party to any share of the reward.

Rich and I were talkinf about Ferguson earlier. Wasn't he with a "ladyfriend", not his wife?
