Noble Friends,
On this day in 1598, playwright Ben Jonson killed an actor named Gabriel
Spenser in a brawl. Fortunately for English literature, Jonson escaped
punishment.
More on Ben Jonson can be found here:

Spenser including his death: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabriel_Spenser .
Yours Aye,
Lord Mungo Napier, That Crazy Scot
