RE: Present at the Assassination - Michigan's Boy Surgeon?
Agreed, Roger. It seems that everyone wants (or wanted!) to get their "moment of fame" and get into the act.... I've seen more news articles which I think are spurious regarding those present at the assassination, the trial, the hanging, Booth's autopsy, etc. Folk I've never heard of who had seen things recorded I had never heard of or read of anywhere else; and when it gets down to the "nitty gritty" of known facts, they always seem to have something wrong in their recollections which could be documented correctly elsewhere.
