Booth's visit to the Surratt Boarding House after the assassination

[Linda Anderson]

Somehow the bedroom still doesn't ring true with the diagram. "The latter being used as a bedroom for Mrs. Surratt" seems to refer here to the back parlor. Mr. Wang's diagram shows two smaller rooms behind that as bedrooms for Mrs. Surratt and Honora. I always thought that Mrs. Surratt shared a bedroom with Honora. I'm confused - I'll just stick to knowing the layout of Surratt Tavern...

The map is confusing. It reminds me of the diagram that Pelz drew of the Old Club House/Seward Mansion that shows Seward's bedroom in the back of the house.

Weichmann goes on to say:

"In addition to these rooms there were two large rooms and a small one in the attic. One of these was used by Miss Surratt and Miss Fitzpatrick; the second was a spare room; and the small one was occupied by the servant."
