#' Acute Leukemia data from Freireich et al (1963).
#'
#'  In this study there were 21 pairs of subjects, and within each
#'  pair one subject received 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) and one got
#'  placebo. The data are right censored.
#'
#'  See also Gehan (1965) who used the data ignoring the pairing so
#'  that he could illustrate his famous two-sample (non-paired) rank
#'  test.
