The Miami Cruiser Bobby Mair, whisks us to 1957, when The Soviet Union announces that Swedish envoy Raoul Wallenberg had died in a Soviet prison, a fire at a home for the elderly in Warrenton, Missouri, United States, killing 72 people, The last person to be executed in New Zealand, Walter James Bolton, is hanged at Mount Eden Prison for poisoning his wife.
