...make way for a larger and more magnificent one. The new church remained intact until the year 1810, when much of it was pulled down, in order to furnish building material.

At 16 he was a reporter on the Baltimore American, at 19 its music critic. He was a piano salesman...
...cool but callow newshawk who grows rich by blackmailing gangsters. Disappointed in the rewards consequent upon his first scoop, the reporter offers to conceal further news of illegal enterprises if their promoters share the profits with him. When another reporter gets the story of a gangland gambling layout, gangsters blame the racketeer-reporter, perforate him.
