Killing Me Softly

A friend of ours has just told us about a remarkable ploy that's used by an ageing and wealthy man-about-town. He dates only the most beautiful, and confides to each of them that he suffers from a heart condition (not true). Then, he takes them home to his magnificent estate, where they are properly dazzled by the quantity and quality of his possessions.

Then conies the clincher: he tells each wide-eyed, open- mouthed girl that by the terms of his will all his money and possessions go to whoever is with him at the time of his death. Then, so he claims, the girl usually does her level best to kill him with kindness.
