...lanai (veranda) he could look out at the surfboarders and swimmers of Waikiki Beach. A hundred volunteer guides were eager to show him the huge fortifications on Diamond Head, the great naval base in land-locked Pearl Harbor (which he as Assistant Secretary of the Navy helped develop), a review of troops at the largest U. S. Army post (Schofield Barracks: 30,000 men). For the asking they would gladly take him fishing for the great a'u (swordfish) in Kona waters, drive him through Hawaii's fern forests, show him sugar-cane fields, pineapple plantations, the leper colony, crown...

And now for killing Russell Browning, Delta pig farmer, his was to be the first Colorado execution by other means than hanging...

As chairman of the State Banking Review Board and onetime president of the Bank of Wisconsin (absorbed by Wisconsin Bankshares Corp.), he knew Wisconsin banks at first hand, had long championed legislation to bolster the weaker ones.
