Booth in Boston April 1865

[JMadonna]

Historically speaking it doesn't mean a wit if Lucy Hale was with JWB in Newport or not. For all we know it could have been an imposter hoping to score with a woman. "Hey baby, I'm John Wilkes Booth, handsome and debonair matinee idol. Want to help me rehearse Romeo & Juliette at yon hotel?" After she found out he wasn't the real thing she called it off.

What is important is where on this trip did Booth learn of the Torpedo Plot? Montreal, Boston or New York? I'd like it to be Montreal but the hearsay evidence points to NY.
