| Exhibitors Trade Review -- 15-September-1923 |
100 years ago today, on 22-November-1916, writer Jack London died at
his ranch in Glen Ellen, California. For many years, people said his
death was a suicide because of ill-health, but it was probably a result
of sickness, alcoholism and an accidental overdose of morphine. His was
the first case I can remember reading of someone who died as an
atheist. I spent a lot of time thinking about it, especially when we
visited his resting place, under a big rock at Glen Ellen.
