Had you been a juror in the trial for the 1908 murder of Dover police officer Walter S. Sterling, you might have wondered why John Dame had been up and about at 4:15 in the morning walking around his house with a loaded revolver.
The evidence indicated that he might not have had the weapon when the argument with his father-in-law started, but went back to his bedroom to get it and returned to the confrontation. You might wonder why, if he felt threatened, he didn t simply move more than a broom s length away and go to call the police.

A new report says there is no place for private schools (such as Edinburgh s Fettes College, pictured) in a country which sees education as a public good . Scottish society should be moving towards a situation in which independent schools are “phased out” as a result of family choice, according to the authors of a major report. One said it had already started to happen in places such as Newton Mearns, near Glasgow, adding that the quality of local state secondaries was encouraging parents to enrol children at the likes of St Ninian’s and Williamwood High rather than “ferry them half-way across the city” to private sector rivals.
Francis Davis Millet
Millet was smoking and playing cards in a gentleman’s lounge on the Titanic when he heard commotion outside the room about 20 minutes after the accident.
The East Bridgewater native rushed into the hallway and a passenger told him the ship had struck an iceberg.
Millet, 65, an internationally celebrated painter traveling first class with Major Archibald Butt, military aide to President William Howard Taft, found a warmer jacket and overcoat in his cabin and then went back onto the deck.
A passenger who survived the sinking recalled seeing Millet, Butt and John Jacob Astor IV, the richest passenger aboard the ship, helping people onto lifeboats.

I can’t tell you how much my heart aches to type in the URL RZIM.org and view the picked-clean skeleton Ravi Zacharias website that now is vs. the vibrant repository of educational and evangelistic materials that it used to be. As someone who has spent decades supporting the ministry, it’s devastating to see the scorched-earth effects that Zacharias’ wrongs have had on everything and everyone around him, including the shutdown of Wellspring International, the charitable arm of the group, which did so much good.
