In it, he explains that Whitney and Lamon hint at something happening but don't go into detail. He mentions Rufus Rockwell Wilson as mentioning counterfeit tickets, in his book "Intimate Memories of Lincoln" p.5. Below, hopefully is a link.

Thanks again!

Thanks for the link for Intimate Memories of Lincoln.
I just glanced through the table of contents and this looks like a very interesting book.

I've got Whitney's book "Life On The Circuit with Lincoln". I'll dig through it tonight and see if he has anything to say about the bogus tickets.
