Lord Windischmeer at Dead Horse Ranch

Either you know this part of American History or you don’t. Prior to World War two, a famous match occurred between Lord Windiscmheer, and Paul Boomer. Many people have since enjoyed the recording of the match, which was, originally broadcast over radio. Paul Boomer as you may remember worked his way to this country from Australia on a cabbage boat. Lord Windiscmheer came over from England. They agreed to meet in a neutral country because of the importance of the match. If my recollection is correct Lord Windeschmeer lost the close match when he fouled out at the pole.

Now, as Paul Harvey would say, for the rest of the story. Many people have wondered what happened to both Paul Boomer, and Lord Windischmeer. Paul Boomer died in an outhouse explosion within a year of the match. After years of investigation by William T. Butcher and Associates, Lord Windiscmheer was tracked down in Canada, living under the alias Perry Foster. Tired of being hounded by the paparazzi the Lord decided to lead a simpler life. I have become friends with Lord Windischmeer through pheasant hunting connections, and graciously his Lordship agreed to join us at the Dead Horse Ranch in Cottownwood, Arizona. His Lordship drove up in the royal carriage from his winter home in Sun City. His Lordship is enjoying a comfortable retirement with the proceeds from a successful book on his sport. I can faithfully report his Lordship is still windy, but the wind is now coming from a different direction. He has an elaborate collection of stories and jokes, which keep his friends entertained late into the night
