I was under the impression that Enoch Mason was on the ferry with Booth et al when they crossed the Rappahannock???

Yes, Laurie, Enoch was on the Ferry when Booth crossed. On the other side, he went on ahead,to, we believe, to notify Richmond and Mosby that Booth had been found. He returned to Port Royal when Booth;s body was being shipped to Washington - too late to bring his father and Williamson into the picture. I was trying to give a brief feel for the system that was activated by finding Booth. Certainly, Williamson would be interested in Booth's whereabouts, and it was up to Enoch to tell him.
