Abstract

Harrington says a fraternity friend has told him Black is interested in John Wilkes Booth. He says he has the same interest, and urges Black to meet with Clarence True Wilson. He includes information about John St. Helen and the Booth family, tells Black Francis Wilson has information about Edwin Booth meeting John Wilkes Booth in Paris, talks about a comparison of photos of St. Helen and Booth, and talks bitterly about a Ford he owned. He asks about Black's degree.
