Was paid in Nebraska City and given a wagon to haul it in to meet his mother and brother in California.

Well it was actually a blanket that Doherty sewed the wrong body into so no person could look upon it on it's way back to Bell Plains. HOWEVER, the garbage we have been fed seemed more suitable in that hefty bag!

Yeah....they didn't see the body after it was sewn into the blanket. Doherty and the16th were left in the dust by the beginning of the Secret Service.

On April 18, Lincoln's body was carried to the Capitol rotunda to lay in state View attachment 1441243

Still waiting on that photo of the dead John Wilkes Booth.....

In the East Room at the Executive Mansion the public viewing was on April 18, 1865 from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The private viewing was from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. On the 19th the body was taken to the rotunda of the United States Capitol and the viewing was on the 20th. On April 21, 1865 the body left at 8 a.m.for the trip to Baltimore. On April 21, 1865, a train carrying the coffin of assassinated President Abraham Lincoln leaves Washington, D.C. on its way to Springfield, Illinois, where he would be buried on May 4. The train carrying Lincoln’s body traveled through 180 cities and seven states on its way to Lincoln’s home state of Illinois. Scheduled stops for the special funeral train were published in newspapers.

All that trouble to publicly display the fallen president and total secrecy to obscure any general public view of his assassin....to the extent of sewing the supposed corpse of the man into a blanket, stealing that body, keeping it on a military guarded ship in the middle of a military guarded harbor.....and dissecting the body with knives removing a large section of spine etc. Most famous actor in the land identified by a mole surgery..
.......!

This is a FACT written by a lawyer named Finis Bates. At the time it meant nothing because nobody had a clue that Julius Sterling Morton and the Knights of the Golden Circle were in Nebraska City. They thought the fugative Booth would have no reason to travel into the North. They thought that was crazy talk. https://books.google.com/books?id=P...n wilkes booth nebraska city nebraska&f=false

Booth had friends and Brothers in Nebraska City. It was there that they payed him for his deed and even gave him a guarded wagon to haul it to Texas in.

Ask yourself this, who would John Wilkes Booth have turned Lincoln over to had the President been actually kidnapped on what was reported to the public as "the first attempt"? What podium would have made those prisoner trade negotiations? What good would that have been after 1863 to the C.S.A. by early 1864 the war had taken a turn. I believe the first attempt to kidnap Lincoln was a set up (training mission) to see if the assassins would back out of the deal when the time came. It was called off when none other than Salmon P. Chase stepped out of a borrowed Presidential coach. Salmon P. Chase was a Freemason and a Democrat until Lincoln took office and then he became a Republican.....and then after Lincoln left office he became a Democrat again. I believe he was a "Copperhead" and possibly even K.G.C. or was unknowingly a pawn used by them. He had early dealings with Senator William McKendree Gwin. on the Gadsden Purchase which in my not so humble opinion is enough for my own scale. You can all weigh and measure that evidence with your own scales.

The Pierce administration, which took office in March 1853, had a strong pro-southern, pro-expansion mindset.http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/kgc/367086-franklin-pierce-knight-golden-circle.html#post3498444 Louisiana Senator Pierre Soulé was sent to Spain to negotiate the annexation of Cuba. Expansionists John Y. Mason of Virginia and Solon Borland of Arkansas were appointed as ministers, respectively, to France and Nicaragua. Pierce's Secretary of War, Jefferson Davis, was already on record as favoring a southern route for a transcontinental railroad, so southern rail enthusiasts had every reason to be encouraged.
The South as a whole, however, remained divided. In January 1853 Senator Thomas Jefferson Rusk of Texas introduced a bill to create two railroads, one with a northern route and one with a southern route starting below Memphis on the Mississippi River. Under the Rusk legislation, the President would be authorized to select the specific termini and routes as well as the contractors who would build the railroads. Some southerners, however, worried that northern and central interests would leap ahead in construction and opposed any direct aid to private developers on constitutional grounds. Other southerners preferred the isthmian proposals. An amendment was added to the Rusk bill to prohibit direct aid, but southerners still split their vote in Congress and the amendment failed.
This rejection led to legislative demands, sponsored by William Gwin of California http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/kgc/407451-knights-golden-circle-their-interest-japan-2.htmland Salmon P. Chase of Ohio and supported by the railroad interests, for new surveys for possible routes. Gwin expected that a southern route would be approved — both Davis and Robert J. Walker, former secretary of the treasury, supported it. Both were stockholders in a Vicksburg-based railroad that planned to build a link to Texas to join up with the southern route. Davis argued that the southern route would have an important military application in the likely event of future troubles with Mexico.

"Possibly one of the few mistakes that John Wilkes Booth made, was not taking his note back from the person he sent it up with. It was because of this note that implications and accusations against the Vice President were made that placed Johnson into the conspiracy to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln. After all, Vice President Johnson stood to become 'President Johnson'. What more motive could you have."

Perhaps leaving the note was not a mistake. In fact, it is likely it accomplished its purpose.

Good luck to all,

It was actually Finis Bates who claimed J.W. Booth told him that. It was me that backed up his claim with never before heard of or known evidence that corroborated the claim, and evidence that proved the K.G.C. was waiting for Booth in Nebraska City when he got there. https://archive.org/stream/escapesuicideofj00bate/escapesuicideofj00bate_djvu.txt

Don't waste your money and time.

 

[William the Conqueror]

Thank you for that advice!

 

[William the Conqueror]

Doesn't the book have some factual information? It seems
O'Reilly possibly have more information then on this forum?

 

[Honest Samuel]

O'Reilly is not a treasure hunter and is not as smart as the pro treasure hunters on this forum and website. For sure, he has some factual information but mostly falsely information.
