...rather get myself." Every Englishman had his own obituary for the man who was written off on the court docket as "defendant deceased." Stephen's friend "Bill," Viscount Astor, a somewhat belated witness of high estate, allowed piously: "His readiness to help anyone in pain is the memory many will treasure." In one way or another, the ghost of Stephen Ward seemed likely to haunt many Top Britons as assiduously as the dashing doctor ever courted them in his life...

...almost two months, FBI agents have kept a round-the-clock watch on Chicago Rackets Boss Momo Salvatore ("Sam") Giancana, 53, heir to what remains of Al Capone's empire.

Through these impediments she managed to tell the doctor that while tending her house plants that afternoon, she had bitten a piece of stalk from a handsome specimen with striped leaves, called Dieffenbachia. Her pain was so severe that the doctors had to give her a morphine-type drug. After a while she was able to take, though painfully, a little aluminum-magnesium hydroxide as an antidote to whatever poison she might...
