RE: Interesting Day at the Old Surratt Hacienda
Just a note the last page (696) accidentially got posted in the middle, so if you're reading the pages from top to bottom the testimony of John Clarvoe interrupts Rachel's testimony.

It's interesting that nearly 3 decades later that Rachel misremembers seeing Booth with Mary Surratt instead of, presumably, Weichmann. Did she harbor some private doubts about Mary's innocence and project that unto unreliable memory? I guess we'll never know and it's not really possible evidence of Mary's guilt anyway?

It's too bad about Bill's passing, I would have loved to hear his thoughts about Rachel, the Surratts, and her accounts.
