RE: Identification of Booth's body
Mike, I have gone back and read your replies. You should go back and read your post 238 again too.
You frequently emphasize the problems Dr. May has in identifying the body on the Montauk as Booth, and just as frequently fail to mention that Dr. May states he is positive that it is Booth's body. So now you acknowledge Dr. May always claimed he recognized the body as Booth.

And yet in the same post I also notice that you chose to again emphasize the point that L. Gardner said that everyone was "struck" by the body's lack of resemblance to Booth, and that when they compared their photos of Booth to the body, they saw no resemblance". Yet in the article posted by Steve above, we find you did it again, by failing to mention that L Gardner also says "Was it Booth's body? Of coarse it was."

And here is your inconsistency. You accept Dr May and L Gardner as credible witnesses when they say what you want them to say, but when they say the body was Booth's, that's a problem so you leave that out. Because if these two credible witnesses identify the body as Booth, then your belief that Booth didn't die at Garrett's, goes up in smoke.
So who is the credible witness, Dr. May and L. Gardner who you frequently quote, who actually saw the body and identify it as Booth, or you viewing the events from a distance of 150+ years and insisting on a different conclusion?

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
