Hello Everyone:

I'm not sure who lived where, but I can say with near certainty that Rathbone and Harris were delivered by carriage to the White House and that the presidential party (all four of them, plus the coachman, Francis P. Burke, left together for the theater. Here are the proofs:

1. Michael Burlingame, Ed., Lincoln Observed---p. 188 (Noah Brooks)

2. Forbes's Affidavit, 1892, in Good, We Saw Lincoln Shot , p. 102

3. Clara M. Laughlin, The Death of Lincoln, p. 40

4. Carl Sandburg, Abraham Lincoln: the Prairie Years, p. 580

5. Katherine Helm, The True Story of Mary, Wife of Lincoln, pp. 242, 256

Thank you.

Additional material or corrections are welcome.
