The Legend Of John Wilkes Booth

[maharba]

A striking young man arrives in New Orleans in the late 1860s, having spent time recently in old Mexico. He is seen and noted by several as John Wilkes Booth. He passes on into southern Arkansas and stops at the homes of several, once very
highly placed Confederates. He spends a night and is given money and a fresh horse. He makes his way west into Texas, and always seeming to know where to find the residences of prominent Confederates. These are men who certainly had known and would recognize the celebrated actor John Wilkes Booth. He is greeted cordially, exchanges old stories with them, and is helped along his way. Is he the same man who appears in 1870 Granbury, Texas?
