Yes, she did. I forget right now what it was. Orgarita Booth's
daughter (Booth's grand-daughter) wrote a book, "This One Mad
Act," published in 1937, which I'm in the middle of reading.
Thus far, her book is *very solid*. The book is probably out
of print; I got it through the local university's library.
It has several family photos, including one of Ogarita Booth
wearing a brooch around her neck; brooch is size of silver
dollar, containing photo of John Wilkes Booth. This wearing
of such a brooch circa 1885 is very daring, considering the
hostile climate against JW Booth at the time. It's impossible
to convey the strength of the book, "This One Mad Act," in
e-mail. The book carefully explains the situation. I plan to
write a review in Conspiracy Nation, but even that will be
inadequate to the book. Highly recommended book, if you
can get hold of it.
