RE: Booth's Day on April 14
Roger dug it up after I'd mentioned it a few years ago, but a contemporary newspaper account has Clara's statement that Booth had made an earlier visit to the box and made them all uncomfortable with his "peering into it". She further stated that when he returned later, Rathbone arose "to ask him his business" and Booth rushed past him and fired.
