| Tribunus Laticlavius | Good try. The truth is interesting ; he was Don Maquis 1878 - 1937. He never used capitals because he produced wondrous verse supposedly by a cat called Mehitable who could not operate the upper-case typewriter key! I spotted one called 'pete at the seashore' by ' pete the pup'. Funny old world, ain't it?

| Tribunus Laticlavius | OK. Another American. An alcoholic and laudanum addict, he still managed to join his local Temperance Society to lecture others on the evils of drink. Who was this? |
