Forty-Seven Years Ago

[stoutfellow]

Some people on the LMB list are reminiscing about their memories of the day JFK was assassinated. I have no memory of that; I was a month or two shy of my fifth birthday. I do remember, however, being taught (in school) a song that was basically his "Ask not..." set to music, and it must have been around then. It occurs to me to wonder if that might not have been after, or even in response to, the assassination.

Aldous Huxley and C. S. Lewis also died that same day.
