Both guesses are excellent but incorrect. This is a tough question.

Hint #1: The correct person has been mentioned previously on this forum.

Yeah, great hint Roger. That means about 9,843,465 names to choose from.

Always good to have the right books at hand. Henry Merrick (thanks to John Fazio).

Great research, Eva!! Henry Merrick, a clerk at the National Hotel, is correct. Some assassination books, perhaps the majority, do not include this conversation.

You know the task of which three books to take to a desert island (AKA Vienna)? I chose John Stanton's, David Donald's "Lincoln", and Ed Steers' "Encyclopedia" because I thought they cover the most questions and topics. (So, which three books would you decide on?)

Offhand, I do not know. I will have to think about that!

Many years ago, assassination expert Mike Kauffman discovered a receipt showing that the government paid John Lloyd for his service as a witness in the conspiracy trial. How much was John Lloyd paid?

I'll guess $20

Bit of a storm my way and I may lose power so here's what I have. John Lloyd was paid to turn state's evidence to testify as a witness in the conspiracy trial.
The amount may be in "American Brutus" by Mike Kauffman. I think it was $50.

Michael and Anita, you are both too low.

Hint #1: Although this question may seem difficult, the truth of the matter is that the right answer is not far from being right before your eyes.

I know where the answer is but shall not give away. Hint: Just saw it two days ago. Little known fact I'd never seen before.

(I'm quite sure it's in Mr. Fazio's book, too, but my copy is far away right now!)
So I guess - 75$?

You are also too low, Eva. The correct answer is much closer to you than John Fazio's book.

Hint #1: Two clicks away.
