Minneapolis Columnist Pre-

Of Unusual Show

A body, supposedly embalmed
and purported to be that Of John
Wilkes Booth. murderer Of Abra-
ham Lincoln, will be on display as
one Of the many shows Of Jay
Gould's Million Dollar Spectacle at
the Stearns County Fair August
1919. This exhibit has caused con-
siderable comment throughout the
state and has caused many to say
flake" when they left the tent.
Nevertheless. the show Is well
worth a visit, and the following
from Cedric Adams column, ex-
elusive in the Minneapolis Star,
throws a new and interesting light
on this famous exhibit:
Body-B-r-r-r!
It's in the state right now. the
mummified body Of John Wilkes
Booth, murderer Of Abraham Lin
coin, that's why I thought you
might be interested in some OF the
back ground and research dug up
by Jim Eckman. Jay Gould of
Glencoe, owner of "Gould's Million
Dollar Show" has q half interest in
the body. Jim touched 1t not long
ago, examined it carefully and con-
cluded It was a human body be-
yond all doubt. Time magazine
back in 1881 had a piece on 1t.
Time said the mummy has been
authenticated beyond all doubt.

Is the man whose body Gould
purchased. Eckman continued
his research. A group Of Chica-
go physicians operated on the
body in 1881 and believe the
body is Booths because they
found: (1) A damaged right
thumb. Booth crushed his
thumb In a stage windlass
when he was boy. (2) A scar
over his right eye. Booth suf-
fered q wound over the same
eye in a stage duel. (3) A bro
ken right leg. Booth broke his
leg in leaping from Lincoln's
box to the stage ~ In the
body Of this mummy, lodged
in the stomach, they found a
signet ring with the initial "B"
on 1t. Booth evidently swallow
ed the ring with the arsenic to
be sure it would be buried with
him. These findings came 20
years after the suicide Eek
