ALT1:... that Arizona Territorial Chief Justice C. G. W. French reunited with and married "the love of his youth" late in life?

It meets all eligibility criteria (new, long enough, hook, policy and QPQ), and AGF for offline cited hook. --Anton^Talk 09:19, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

AntanO, would you review my alternatives:

ALT2:... that Arizona Territorial Chief Justice C. G. W. French witnessed a fight in a courtroom that resulted in stabbings and shootings?

ALT2 seems interesting too, but ALT1 bit intresting :) --Anton^Talk 09:36, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

I considered adding an alternate hook involving the court room fight when writing the article, but decided to go in a different direction. At the moment, my preference would be to use ALT1 on February 14 (Valentine's Day and the anniversary of Arizona statehood). --Allen3 ^talk 11:50, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
