A little-known person

[Steve Whitlock]

Regarding the tipster...Tom Bogar has researched actor John McCullough and determined he was not in Washington at the time of the assassination. Although it says that the tipster looked like McCullough, he also admits that he "never ascertained whether McCullough was in Washington at that time."

With respect to the identity of the tipster, Mike Kauffman writes, "It remains one of the great mysteries of the Lincoln assassination story." When a Lincoln assassination expert such as Mike Kauffman writes those words it shows the extreme difficulty of the task of naming such tipster.

Roger,

Thank you for posting the article! After I found the article I looked for Daggett mention at the Symposium. Susan previously posted the same article for "Recollections of James A. McDevitt and Albert Daggett" at https://rogerjnorton.com/LincolnDiscussi...rt+daggett. However, I can't read it, and when I click on the photo it takes me to some photoshop.
