Our good friend, Kate Larson, narrated the segment at Surratt House. As author of The Assassin's Accomplice, I doubt that Kate gave a totally sympathetic view of Mary (and I'm on Kate's side).

The crew was back this morning to meet with Mike Kauffman, who then went with them to film the segment on Booth's escape route. They could not have a better guide than Mike, and I understand that they had even rented a rowboat and a lifeguard to simulate the river crossing. I doubt seriously that they will do anything more than row a decent distance from shore to get a realistic shot.

They hope to have this production on the air in July. Are they thinking about the July 9 anniversary of "the gallows?"
