JESSE JAMES WAS ONE OF HIS NAMES -- III
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
The question arises: If Jesse James got $5 million from Emperor
|
|
Maximilian, then why did he bother to rob trains? Supposedly,
|
|
the answer is that James was working for the Confederate
|
|
underground, adding to their treasury.
|
|
|
|
The question lingers: Who is "HH?" The anonymous author (CN
|
|
11.32) tells of the mysterious "88" and "88, Jr.," with those
|
|
numbers said to signify the eighth letter of the alphabet, "H."
|
|
The anonymous author claims that a Felix Monroe Hughes raped and
|
|
impregnated an illegitimate daughter of Abraham Lincoln. The
|
|
child therefrom was named "88." Shedding possible light on the
|
|
mystery, one CN reader states:
|
|
|
|
Felix Monroe Hughes... the father of 88.
|
|
88 is HH is of course Howard Hughes...
|
|
Howard Robard Hughes, Sr. 1869-1924
|
|
Howard Robard Hughes, Jr. 1905-1976
|
|
|
|
In his book (*Jesse James Was One Of His Names* by Del Schrader,
|
|
with Jesse James III. Arcadia, California: Santa Anita Press,
|
|
1975. Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 74-33962),
|
|
Schrader claims that Jesse James took the $5 million (see above)
|
|
and parlayed it into a huge fortune, partly through investments
|
|
in the Texas oil boom. Schrader adds that "with capital to burn,
|
|
Jesse was a backer of the Hughes Tool Company, which was founded
|
|
by Howard Hughes' father."
|
|
|
|
But the anonymous author has indicated that, no, "HH" (88) is not
|
|
"Howard Hughes." So who is "88?" Is it Herbert Hoover? Is it
|
|
Hannibal Hamlin? The anonymous author won't say.
|
|
|
|
As noted in the previous issue (CN 11.36), the Confederate
|
|
government went underground in 1865, and was headquartered in
|
|
Nashville until about 1884. The South's spy network was very
|
|
good. How did the Confederacy stave off defeat during "The War
|
|
of Northern Aggression," four long years, 1861-1865? The answer
|
|
in part, says Schrader, is that the South had a better spy
|
|
network. And that spy network did not just go away in 1865.
|
|
|
|
Feeling in the South still simmered and boiled against the
|
|
"damnyankees" after 1865. When those "damnyankees" increased
|
|
their war upon the indian nations of the American West, many
|
|
southerners strongly sympathized with the indians. To Jesse
|
|
James, "Sitting Bull, Chief Joseph, and other chiefs were
|
|
Confederate allies..." (Schrader) The underground Confederacy
|
|
began smuggling guns to the indians. Furthermore, says Schrader,
|
|
military training was provided. The indians "were trained to
|
|
fight like Morgan's Raiders and Quantrill's Missouri guerrillas
|
|
-- to split up on command, hit with force and devastation and
|
|
then fade away before the enemy could recover." (ibid.)
|
|
|
|
Jesse James eventually rose to the position of "chief of the
|
|
Inner Sanctum of The Knights of the Golden Circle." He was "one
|
|
of the most powerful men in America. The Golden Circle had
|
|
industrial as well as military spies on both sides of the
|
|
Atlantic." (ibid.)
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately for our tale, The Knights of the Golden Circle are
|
|
linked to the infamous Ku Klux Klan, an organization responsible
|
|
for many hateful acts over the years. Schrader does consistently
|
|
point out that James himself was not a racist. In fact,
|
|
according to Schrader, some of James' gang were themselves
|
|
blacks, including chief James lieutenant John Trammell, "the
|
|
black cobra."
|
|
|
|
Reportedly belonging to a lesser-ranked Confederate secret
|
|
society, The Knights of the White Camellias, was John Wilkes
|
|
Booth. Booth worked for Confederate Intelligence, smuggling
|
|
messages and contraband between North and South. In the final
|
|
year of the Civil War, Booth reported that "a representative of
|
|
the European Rothschilds called on President Lincoln and offered
|
|
him money at 27.5 percent interest, but was thrown out of his
|
|
office." (qtd. in Schrader) After Booth shot Lincoln, the
|
|
Knights of the Golden Circle began to suspect that Booth had been
|
|
recruited into the Rothschild organization. Booth had not been
|
|
ordered by the South to kill Lincoln, so on whose orders had he
|
|
acted? However, whatever the circumstances, Booth knew too many
|
|
secrets and had to be smuggled to safety. The Confederate
|
|
underground eventually moved him to the Free State of Van Zandt,
|
|
Texas. (Schrader)
|
|
|
|
But Booth slowly developed a drinking problem and his tongue
|
|
began to wag. Schrader notes that Booth, by about 1890, had
|
|
hired a lawyer "to write a book about his secret life and how and
|
|
why he shot President Lincoln." (This book may have been,
|
|
*Escape and Suicide of John Wilkes Booth* by Finis L. Bates. See
|
|
CN 3.91) It was decided, according to Schrader, that Booth had to
|
|
be found and silenced. He was eventually tracked to Enid,
|
|
Oklahoma. One of Booth's assassins, reportedly, was William S.
|
|
(Wild Bill) Lincoln, a distant cousin of Abraham Lincoln.
|
|
|
|
According to a sworn statement by "Wild Bill" Lincoln:
|
|
|
|
Our branch of the Lincoln family was never satisfied with
|
|
what really happened to Booth, and I spent fourteen years
|
|
of my life running down the true story. Strangely enough,
|
|
I learned it from Jesse W. James, head of the Confederate
|
|
underground. I was present at Booth's real death. (qtd.
|
|
in Schrader)
|
|
|
|
Jesse James and "Wild Bill" Lincoln allegedly crept into Booth's
|
|
room at the Grand Avenue Hotel in Enid, Oklahoma, then tricked
|
|
the hungover Booth into drinking arsenic-laced lemonade. Booth
|
|
is said to have died in their presence. Although commonly
|
|
reported that Booth's corpse was mummified by direction of his
|
|
lawyer, Finis Bates, Schrader claims it was the massive arsenic
|
|
in Booth's system which caused the mummification. James
|
|
reportedly arranged for Booth's body to be exhibited on tour,
|
|
throughout the United States. According to Schrader, Booth's
|
|
mummified remains eventually passed into the ownership of a
|
|
Minnesota jeweler named Jay Gould, relative of the notorious
|
|
banker. Today, the whereabouts of the Booth mummy are unknown.
