So, what is wrong with praying for his death?

Did Buckley lose his mind?

Bizarre. Apparently he's into symbolism over substance. If he doesn't look the part, pray for his demise.

It was our (i.e. Bill's and mine) training, back at St. Grottlesex and other prep schools, to pray for the

Speedy Recovery or
Happy Death

for those of our school chums, or their relatives, who were in mortal danger. I gather from the remarks posted that this quaint custom has passed out of fashion?
