Gilmore, 61, of "no fixed address," was found frozen to death in an abandoned house a few miles away. The cold was kinder to many others of the capital's 10,000 or so homeless. When the icy weather kept home Inaugural partygoers, several of the hosts, including a bank and a law firm, donated their uneaten goodies to the poor.
