Among the bulletins that were issued last week from Craigwell House, Bognor, where the King-Emperor rests after his illness, was one over the signatures of Lord Dawson of Penn and Sir Stanley Hewett, His Majesty's Chief Physicians. Innocent sounding enough, it was secretly carried to London, and submitted to Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin and the Prince of Wales before being published...

...examines the patient's blood and determines the nature of the injections. Therefore, British interest has focused sharply on Dr. L. E. H.

His death, thought Britons, would be a sad commentary on the wages of virtue and an upright life. Those Royal libertines, George I, George II and George IV, all died at the age of 67. That Royal part-time madman, George III (reigned 1760-1820; mad 1788-89 and 1811-20) lived to the prodigious age of 81-a year longer than Victoria herself. Surely the great Queen would...
