Former CIA director
R. James Woolsey last saw
Philip Merrill on Memorial Day and "he seemed his normal, happy, exuberant, engaging self." Capital executive editor
Tom Marquardt last saw Merrill a few days before he was reported missing. "We would have conversations that did not indicate that there was anything amiss," he says, although the publisher had sometimes said recently that "he didn't really know what to do with the rest of his life, as he would say." ||
