Despite his dissipating life-style, Harry K. Thaw lived to a ripe old age, dying in Miami, Florida in 1947 at the age of 76. A funny story, possibly true, is that Thaw, upon seeing the Philadelphia City Hall was reported to have said, "My god, I shot the wrong architect.”

Erik: For your information 76 is NOT a "Ripe Old Age."
I would say Harry died rather young.

Sure hope Professor Herriott is
too busy today to catch you Eric
You've gotta forgive him Dave
He's only a musician
Like Dancers they only count to 8
Erik: I hope you can count to 8 without patting your foot.
In 1947, 76 was considered a ripe old age. Today it’s no big deal. (Don't confuse ripe old age with venerable old age.)
