A College Mystery Philip Collier died on the 29th of May. He was a contemporary of Christopher Round and always just a step ahead in every subject: academic rivalry at its best. Not until about a decade later, when both men were lecturers at the same college, did the competition start to heat up. Academically Round occasionally surpassed Collier but socially Collier was one of the favourites of the gods. Then three things happened. They destroyed one life, ended another and ruined the happiness of a third. When you add an attractive lady and the possibility of a professorship for one of the two men, a triangle becomes multi-cornered. But what really happened on the 29th of May? and seems to happen still on each 29th of May? | ![]() | ||
