Sir Simon Burley lost his head on this date in 1388 to the fury of the Lords Appellant. The childhood tutor of the young King Richard II, Burley had come up in the world as a bosom friend and comrade in arms to Richard’s uncle, Edward the Black Prince.

Undocumented migrants in Chicago have begun spilling into the hallways of police precincts and are sleeping there, a new report says.
