A Spoilerler Colchester

Tracy b wilson: I keep running into mentions of charles colchester, the alleged psychic who warned president abraham lincoln that he was going to be assassinated. Colchester gained a significant following as a spiritualist with some very high profile patrons. The whole spiritualist movement and tried to distance itself from him. We have talked about mary tod l Lincoln's fascination with spiritualism in the after life before on the show. There were many spiritualists in her life but we haven't talked about how she became so drawn to spiritualism.
