Frank Ford's letter to George Olszewski written 04/13/1962 is pretty clear, Harry Ford drilled the hole.

Yes. I have read that, but was also curious about this from BoothieBarn - However, a period statement from Harry Ford has him saying, “Did not notice a hole in the door or in the wall. Did not take particular notice of the wall or door however.”

Read the comment section on my post about Rathbone's account: http://boothiebarn.com/2012/06/10/though...-rathbone/

Yes. Very informative. Had forgotten about that statement over the years.
