Atlanta Daily World, August 13, 1934. I’m not sure how these slayings add up to a poignant demonstration of the evils of common-law marriage. All of these couples could have parted ways without a divorce. Neither does this seem like a particularly “weird” assortment of murder weapons. I mean, what are you supposed to use to kill your non-husband? 
Killed in a bakery, you say? I wonder what kind of pie they sold there?

A perfect example of non-sequitur reporting. And no comment on the sad humor of a man named Currant dying in a bakery–a golden opportunity lost.
You’re right. I’ma go stick my head in the oven.
