Born Brilliant states, on the subject of Charlie Williams' death, that it was not - as has been long believed - an accident, but a debt- and drug-ridden suicide to allow Kenneth's mother to claim his life insurance. The diaries reportedly suggest that Charlie had become addicted to a common cough medicine, Gee's Linctus, which contained 4% powdered opium. Out of work, indebted and suffering from the mental effects of his addiction, Charlie is now said to have purposely filled an empty Gee's bottle with the cleaning fluid Thawpit, before drinking it. Although unable to categorically prove this chain of events, Kenneth suspected this to be the case from Charlie's death in 1962 until his own, and sought to shield his mother from this 'truth'. That he died a burden and a disappointment to himself is both sad and wrong, because here we are, thirty years after his death, and for many he seems as potent a presence as ever.
