About Christmas, 1014, a foreign
diplomat in London received an anony
mous gift of pate de foie gras. Suspic
ion was aroused and analysis showed
the presence of a deadly poison. Sec
ret Service agents were called in and j
they proceeded to work on the theory I
that the pate de foie gras had come
from one of three* aliens then under
surveillance. Accordingly, to each ol
them was sent anonymously a can of |
fotie gras exactly similar in appearan- j
ce to the can containing the poisoned
stuff.
The lardladv of one of the trio
opened and. served it for his supper,
and it was not until late in the even- !

been addressed to him. Thinking that
he had eaten his own poison, the man (
actually became ill. He was promptly
arrested.
