The paper describes one of the more thoroughly analyzed flare events from the SMM epoch - SMM featured the first hard X-ray imaging observations. The cartoon anticipates the Nobeyama observations of ``three-legged flares,'' as seen in the Hanaoka and Nishio cartoons. Note the correct usage of the apostrophe in the paper (if not in ADS) since not one but TWO queens were involved in it.
