Try this: http://jmp.sh/nnEwgTl

It was an extremely detailed report by someone who was obviously there, as almost everything was corroborated. I'll have to figure out who the source was. Maunsell Field wrote one of the long reports, but I don't think it was him.

It was originally from the Herald. B.B. French mentioned writing a report for one of the papers, but I forget which one.

ETA: It was definitely one of the Herald's official correspondents, writing the night of the incident. I don't know who it was. Many of the men mention Robert comforting his mother, so the person did not need to have been in the parlor with Mary.
