In due time…..when I shall have paid the debt of Nature, my remains will rest here in your midst with those of my kindred and neighbors. It is possible they may be unhonored, neglected, spurned! But, perhaps, years hence …..some wandering stranger, some lone exile may erect over them a humble stone, and thereon, this epitaph, “He was Faithful.”
GARDEN SEAT
c. 1871
Pair of Chinese export famille-rose porcelain hexagonal garden seats. Small holes
in seats allowing light from an interior candle to show through.
