RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 07-29-2015
Thanks, Eva. I'll check with Vicki.
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 07-29-2015
Forgot my source: "The Darkest Dawn" by Th. Goodrich.
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 08-17-2015
What happened here?
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 08-18-2015
Hint #1: I will not give hints but answer "yes"/"no"- questions.
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 08-18-2015
Is it related to something George Atzerodt did/stayed?
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 08-18-2015
This is a very good idea, Roger, but, sorry, no.
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 08-18-2015
Is it related to something John Wilkes Booth did/stayed?
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 08-18-2015
Yes, it is.
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 08-18-2015
Lincoln assassination books usually say John Wilkes Booth rendezvoused with David Herold at Soper's Hill. Is this what that location looks like today?
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 08-18-2015
Another very good idea, but - no. (PS: The last "yes" referred to both you questioned.)
RE: Assassination Trivia - Wild Bill - 08-18-2015
St Lawrence Hotel in Toronto where Booth stayed and acted and met Confed agents
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 08-18-2015
Assuming you mean Montréal I congratulate you to brilliantly solving this question, Bill - kudos!

Roger - My understanding is that Soper's Hill was leveled during the construction of the WDC Beltway, which means today, it is 8 or 10 lanes of backed-up traffic....
RE: Assassination Trivia - RJNorton - 08-18-2015
Thanks, Bill. I had no clue, so I just took a wild guess at Eva's question. Kudos to Bill Richter!
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 08-18-2015
It was a great guess, Roger - thanks!
