Borne by Loving Hands

When I read Augustus Clark's description of going over the side of Lincoln's box at Ford's Theatre it seemed unbelievable to me. But I came across this account in George Bryan's 1940 book which describes the assassination which mentions a man going up the side of the box:

(Last paragraph page 210)

In that paragraph, Bryan is quoting witness Thomas Sherman about Laura Keene. But when I looked at Sherman's description of Keene from a 1936 newspaper account, it doesn't mention the man going up the side of the box:

Does anybody have any idea, where Bryan got that description? It's not sourced in his book.
