Hoyne
The Chicago History Museum tells some good stories … my favorite is about Thomas Hoyne, who was elected Mayor of Chicago back in the 1800s — but the guy who was Mayor before him wouldn’t give up the position, and the courts somehow ruled in his predecessor’s favor. So Hoyne never got to be Mayor, and then he died on a train.
