I have a newspaper report of a death in 1917. The person who died in the article did not die however his wife did. I am writing up a story about the article and I want to title it "The Reports Of My Death..." Not Just For the Famous. The partial quote "The reports of my death..." has been attributed to Mark Twain. In doing some digging to find the origin of the original quote I discovered that he is often misquoted.
