Comments: Drinking with Sadie the Goat on Water Street
Do You have evidence that the Forth Ward Hotel had a trap door through which bodies were dumped in to the East River? Exactly where was the hotel?
Do you have evidence to back up your claims about Gallus Mag and Sadie? Don't cite Herbert Asbury. His account comes from an 1874 book titled The New York Tombs by Charles Sutton --equally full of exageraton and myth.
