 That's a Fact . . . Dr. Levi Lamborn presented a Lamborn Red carnation to his political opponent William McKinley before each of their series of debates for the 18th congressional seat. The lapel flower became McKinley's good luck charm, and he consistently wore one at all times when he became president. Moments after presenting the one from his lapel to a young admirer on Sept. 14, 1901, he was killed by an assassin's bullet. |
