The Jefferson Lemen Compact - Was it True

[RJNorton]

I think this goes for many similar claims and stories. Humans love to have their share in events, and time expands memory and wishful thinking becomes subjective "reality".

Well said, Eva. Sometimes it seems everyone "wants a piece" of Lincoln, and even almost literally....in the years following the assassination approximately 25 men claimed (or were given credit) to have helped carry the stricken President across the street from Ford's Theatre to the Petersen House. Picture that!
