The Mysterious Death of Katherine Cecil Thurston
Irish novelist Katherine Cecil Thurston (1874-1911) was found mysteriously dead in her bed at Moore's Hotel in Cork, Ireland after she had changed her will to benefit her young fiancé Dr A. T. Bulkeley Gavin. Gavin, unlike her first husband Ernest Temple Thurston (1879-1933), took limited interest in her work. As a result, Thurston's papers remain in the Thurston Archive at the National Library of Scotland. Thurston's works have been developed into film and plays in the U.S. and U.K. Her devotion to Irish nationalist causes may have led to ill-feeling for this social butterfly.
