Today -100: November 22, 1923: Of notes, Saxons, and surprisingly feisty dead Bavarians


Britain gets France to tone down the note to Germany on monitoring the size of its military. The issue of the return of the crown prince is dropped entirely.

Ousted Saxon Prime Minister Erich Zeigner is arrested, while Beer Hall Putsch leaders like Ludendorff still roam free.

Bavarian radical Kurt Eisner kills a peasant trying to assassinate him. Which is impressive, since Eisner was actually assassinated in 1919.
