All sorts of altered, confused, and just plain mistaken information can flit through a man's brain in that period of time - thus creating untrustworthy testimony.

Thank You for your "support". I feel that there is more Believable testimony going in his favor.
I have an Elmira newspaper from April 15 1865 that describes his presence in Elmira. That statement is trash until I can show you, but I don't know where it is - it's in storage. But---- you are going to own it some day. If I ever get around to "housecleaning" that mess.
