The Legend Of John Wilkes Booth

[maharba]

What's that? You doubt that Jesse and Quantrill and the boys came to Enid for the KGC and slipped rat poison to the old fellow? Me too. But I did mention in passing, that (I assume) we've all read similar narratives. I've even read narratives where Boston Corbett is fancifully dealt back into the picture: sometimes he IS the man there calling himself Booth, sometimes he is (again?) assassinating Booth in Enid. I get a chuckle out of those colorful yarns, but am not derailed by these intentional caricature narratives.
