Mystery Visitor Misses Poe's Birthday
Every year in Baltimore, a figure dressed in black, whose identity is hidden by a wide-brim hat, appears at poet Edgar Allan Poe's grave on his birthday. The visitor leaves a half-empty bottle of cognac and roses. For the first time in more than six decades, the visitor didn't show this year.

Nevermore?
It's really bad when 'The Visitor" is laid off.
