Letter: Mrs. Caesar justly suspicious

Dear Editor,

Did Julius Caesar really say, “Et tu, Bute?” when he was stabbed in the back by Brutus on the Ides of March? [This will be the noblest roamin’ of them all, July 3, Langley Advance]. Referring to his trusted conspirator as “Beauty” puts a new spin on Shakespeare’s play, and explains why Mrs. Caesar suspected there was something going on between the two.

“I told him, ‘July, don’t go!’” suddenly makes sense.
