A Different Viewpoint of Lew Powell's Character

[LincolnMan]

Betty: Thank you for taking the time out to give such a detailed answer. Yes, it was Jim Bishop's book The Day Lincoln Was Shot where I had first heard about Powell and the skull. I had forgotten over the years where I had heard it. If the account of Powell if true as you have laid it out, he becomes much more of a sympathetic character for me. Thanks for your great input!
