Wow!

As they say in the article, "Archaeology almost never finds named
individuals - this is absolutely extraordinary."

Thanks for the report.

Noble Friends,

The archaeologist in Leicester have announced that they have found a 
burial. The skeleton shows fatal battle injuries, and also the spine is 
crooked. Good signs for this being Richard. This could be it, friends:

And for some words from the diggers:

It will still be a few weeks before the lab tests are done. Stay tuned. 
I will be away in New Hampshire until 1 October. If the results come 
back before than and nobody else jumps on the story, I will report on 
this when I return.

Yours Aye,


Lord Mungo Napier, That Crazy Scot
