Booth and Andrew Jackson

[irshgrl500]

In my ongoing research into Lafayette and Luther Baker, I discovered a strange piece of information. In 1835 Junius Booth Sr. wrote a nasty letter to President Andrew Jackson and implied that Jackson should die. A matter of a few weeks later, there was an attempted assassination of President Andrew Jackson. It wasn't Booth that tried the deed however, but rather someone else.

As mentioned in another thread, I discovered sometime ago that Lafayette Curry Baker was in the San Francisco Vigilantes along with Junius Booth Jr.

Was there a second attempt to assassinate President Jackson (the first was on January 30, 1835.) ?
Richard Lawrence, attempted to assassinate President Jackson on January 30, 1835. On July 4 1835, over 5 months after Lawrence's attempt to assassinate President Jackson, Junius Booth Sr., wrote his nasty letter to the President, suggesting that he should die.
