I do not know why anybody has not put 2 + 2 together on the Hedgepeth-Booth connection as there was a big train robbery near London, Hedgepeth being a train or highway robber. I'm sorry, but an Albert Fish-Tumblety connection? Tumblety being the robber. Seems pretty well known that Tumblety-Booth were both suspects in the same incident. I don't know anything about a Guiteau, though. You would have to be a highway robber to get away with some of these crimes. You might want to compare Pitezel with Guiteau, I believe that would make some sense to you. Kind of like an Italian singing songs as a merchant in Venice. Or is that Othello all over again.
