Twice dead in OBITUARIES ( Smith, Constance A. )


        A most odd -if not macabre -error in your OBITUARIES for March 28.

    One Smith, Constance A. appears under the very same Smith, Constance

    A. May " Connie " rest in peace, but she enters whatever afterlife

    with a very earthy chuckle.

             While sipping on my coffee-cup emblazoned with the ominous

    Latin motto " CARPE DIEM " , I noticed the macabre double obituary.

    And reflecting all but a very few people will read my own OBIT with

    benign indifference -or an impish chuckle.

                I guess you can expect a letter like this from a guy

    who CONSOLES himself -in war time ! - reading the horror stories

    of Providence's very own H.P. Lovecraft .

              To a bored American soldier outside Baghdad -just waiting -

    I recommend his " The Rats in the Walls ". Some comic relief from

    REAL horror !
