...before the President can resume vigorous physical activity, and he must expect to experience, as do all people with similar back problems, ups and downs and occasional setbacks." So hopeful had Kennedy been beforehand of a favorable prognosis that he proposed a golf match with Jacqueline and visiting Sister-in-Law Lee Radziwill, his first in seven months. After the checkup, the threesome settled for a cruise aboard the presidential yacht Honey Fitz...
...police commissaire in the town of Loudun, north of Poitiers, knocked on the door of Marie Besnard, a dowdy, 52-year-old widow, and ordered her to come along. The charge: that she had poisoned with arsenic her mother, father, two husbands, father-in-law, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, grandmother-in-law, two cousins, great-aunt, and two close friends.

While his sister-in-law brought French cuisine to Washington, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy has added the salon.

...South Viet Nam, Madame Ngo Dinh Nhu is much more than Bachelor President Ngo Dinh Diem's sister-in-law and a Christian first lady in a Buddhist land. She is also a pert, sloe-eyed and strong-willed feminist who, as a member of the National Assembly, pushed through a "chastity law" that reins in freewheeling husbands and gives wives more freedom to plan their own lives. To outspoken and powerful Madame Ngo, the cheating husbands of the journalistic world are the foreign correspondents, who are not subject to the Directorate General of Information "guidance" that all South...
