Laurie, being a Beatles fan I've tried to find out more about that but drew a blank. Can you remember where you got it from? Thanks!

Mike Kauffman used to mention it on the Booth Tours he once narrated for the Surratt Society. I hope that I am remembering it correctly.

Thanks - if you ever get a chance to inquire I'd kindly ask you to do. I am really ninterested in where it's from, and what exactly is known. Thanks.

Are you sure it was John Surratt? The last time I saw Mike Kauffman he was speaking at a Civil War Roundtable convention in Des Moines that I attended, then we went back to his hotel room and talked until 2 am. At that time he was preparing for a European trip to do research. He told me Agnes Booth Clarke, married to John Sleeper Clarke, refused to divorce her husband after he was rattled by his brother-in-law's horrific killing of Lincoln and that he had been swept up with other Booth family members. Agnes lived for a time in the London building which much later became Abbey Road Studios where the Beatles recorded.

Thanks much, Dr. Houmes!!! Fascinating. The world is a village. One site I accidentally have seen (- purposely Beatles-wise, of course.)
