[MR] BBC: Dysentery and the Death of Kings

[Garth Groff via Atlantia]

Noble Friends,

Today marks the 800th anniversary of Bad King John's death, likely by 
dysentery. He wasn't the only English king to die from this malady. Read 
more about how England was changed, and reigns were . . . uh . . . flush 
down the toilet of history by this nasty disease:

Yours Aye,
