![An extraordinary bulletin by The London Gazette anouncing the death of King George V (1865-1936). By 20 January 1936 George V was close to death.

Dawson noted that he acted to preserve the King's dignity, to prevent further strain on the family, and so that the King's death at 11:55 p.m. could be announced in the morning edition of The Times newspaper rather than less appropriate ... evening journal.
