Correcting History

[RJNorton]

Jim, does Ford's have an opinion on how Rathbone was dressed that night? Bill Nash has probably forgotten this, but years ago, the topic was discussed on the ALO Friends of Lincoln Mailbag. Both Bill and I contacted Ford's at that time, and we both received the same response which was: "We are not sure if Rathbone was in civilian or military dress." Is that still their position today? (What you said in your post makes me think he was probably in civilian dress.)
