ADDITIONAL HISTORY: Headlines You Probably Missed

In this mini episode, I visit a few stories from history's more macabre side. When President Zachary Taylor suddenly died early in his presidency, some people thought he was secretly poisoned and his body was eventually exhumed for testing. Other famous people from history have had their bodies exhumed to solve mysteries surrounding their deaths, too. But...what were the results of all those exhumations? I have the answers!

It's time for another Random Clippings episode! While I'm researching for the regular, full-size episodes, I often come across short articles that are amusing, shocking, or a little of both. None of the articles are long enough to fill their own episode, so I gather them in a folder until the perfect moment comes along to share them---like today.
