Noble Friends,
Today the featured article on Wikipedia is about King Richard II of
England. Richard is generally considered one of the least successful
English kings, but that may be because his memory was so badly smeared
by Shakespeare. Richard was eventually overthrown by Henry Bolingbroke,
who had him imprisoned in the Tower of London. Later Richard was held at
Pontefract Castle where he was starved to death in February of 1400:
