Subject: good point- yes, she does do that and its very informative. I had never heard of leg pullers but then I shy away from reading about violent deaths.
In reply to: kgp 's message, "Bring it on, Girlfriend!! :-D I think there was ample opportunity for parallel reactions given the brands of justice used at the times. Gavin was hanged by the English also. I think it may have been a common last wish to have a familiar and not wholly unfriendly face to witness your last moments. That John could do this for Bates even though he felt somewhat trapped into it speaks to his sense of honor, the same sense we admire in Jamie. It didn't strike me as "been there, done that" as John risked much more by finishing the job. What I suspect is that in the course of her research Diana came upon the leg-pullers and wanted to include them for our edification. She does that quite a bit." on 09:48:49 10/15/07 Mon
