Poe and the Bard of Widow Meagher’s Place
An interview recounts Poe as a steady drinker rather than a periodic drunkard. He frequented Widow Meagher’s oyster shop in Baltimore where he was known as Bard. The tale claims he was drugged in a voter coercion scheme and died from a poison, contradicting Griswold’s account of a weeklong spree.
