Father Nicholas of Tirana accused of eating his wife

Story in The Graphic in January 1928 alleging that Father Nicholas, a Greek Orthodox priest from Tirana was being tried for pickling and eating his wife after she had broken her neck falling downstairs. The story turned out to be completely fabricated and the magazine issued an apology in a later issue (see picture number).
