Fascinating life! Clive was a clue on Jeopardy just last night, and meow I know who he is. Interesting and sad that he tried to kill him self before he made a career for himself, and then at the end of his career, he succeeded in that. Mental illness is timeless i guess-it'll get the best of us. Thanks for telling that story!

Yes, a very interesting character with a very sad end, thanks for reading. I also wrote about the Captain of the Beagle, Robert Fitzroy, another great success who took his own life! It's not something I'd have predicted when reading the achievements of such men.
