These formulae, emblematic of Omniscience, condense into a few symbols the immutable laws of the universe. This mighty instrument of human power itself originates in the primitive constitution of the human mind, and rests upon a few fundamental axioms, which have eternally existed in Him who implanted them in the breast of man when he created him after His own image.

  Harper's Monthly engraving

Henry Adams' sister. Her death from tetanus in Bagni di Lucca is described in the 'Chaos' chapter of his autobiography The Education of Henry Adams:

  He had been some weeks in London when he received a telegram from his brother-in-law at the Bagni di Lucca telling him that his sister had been thrown from a cab and injured, and that he had better come on. He started that night, and reached the Bagni di Lucca on the second day. Tetanus had already set in.
  The last lesson,—the sum and term of education,—began then. He had passed through thirty years of rather varied experience without having once felt the shell of custom broken. He had never seen nature,—only her surface,—the sugar-coating that she shows to youth. Flung suddenly in his face, with the harsh brutality of chance, the terror of the blow stayed by him thenceforth for life, until repetition made it more than the will could struggle with; more than he could call on himself to bear. He found his sister, a woman of forty, as gay and brilliant in the terrors of lock-jaw as she had been in the careless fun of 1859, lying in bed in consequence of a miserable cab-accident that had bruised her foot. Hour by hour the muscles grew rigid, while the mind remained bright, until after ten days of fiendish torture she died in convulsion.
  One had heard and read a great deal about death, and even seen a little of it, and knew by heart the thousand commonplaces of religion and poetry which seemed to deaden one’s senses and veil the horror. Society being immortal, could put on immortality at will. Adams being mortal, felt only the mortality. Death took features altogether new to him, in these rich and sensuous surroundings. Nature enjoyed it, played with it, the horror added to her charm, she liked the torture, and smothered her victim with caresses. Never had one seen her so winning. The hot Italian summer brooded outside, over the market-place and the picturesque peasants, and, in the singular color of the Tuscan atmosphere, the hills and vineyards of the Apennines seemed bursting with mid-summer blood. The sick-room itself glowed with the Italian joy of life; friends filled it; no harsh northern lights pierced the soft shadows; even the dying woman shared the sense of the Italian summer, the soft, velvet air, the humor, the courage, the sensual fulness of Nature and man. She faced death, as women mostly do, bravely and even gaily, racked slowly to unconsciousness, but yielding only to violence, as a soldier sabred in battle. For many thousands of years, on these hills and plains, Nature had gone on sabring men and women with the same air of sensual pleasure.
 Impressions like these are not reasoned or catalogued in the mind; they are felt as part of violent emotion; and the mind that feels them is a different one from that which reasons; it is thought of a different power and a different person. The first serious consciousness of Nature’s gesture,—her attitude towards life,—took form then as a phantasm, a nightmare, an insanity of force. For the first time, the stage-scenery of the senses collapsed; the human mind felt itself stripped naked, vibrating in a void of shapeless energies, with resistless mass, colliding, crushing, wasting, and destroying what these same energies had created and labored from eternity to perfect. Society became fantastic, a vision of pantomime with a mechanical motion; and its so-called thought merged in the mere sense of life, and pleasure in the sense. The usual anodynes of social medicine became evident artifice. Stoicism was perhaps the best; religion was the most human; but the idea that any personal deity could find pleasure or profit in torturing a poor woman, by accident, with a fiendish cruelty known to man only in perverted and insane temperaments, could not be held for a moment. For pure blasphemy, it made pure atheism a comfort. God might be, as the Church said, a Substance, but He could not be a Person.
  With nerves strained for the first time beyond their power of tension, he slowly travelled northwards with his friends, and stopped for a few days at Ouchy to recover his balance in a new world; for the fantastic mystery of coincidences had made the world, which he thought real, mimic and reproduce the distorted nightmare of his personal horror. He did not yet know it, and he was twenty years in finding it out; but he had need of all the beauty of the Lake below and of the Alps above, to restore the finite to its place. For the first time in his life, Mont Blanc for a moment looked to him what it was,—a chaos of anarchic and purposeless forces,—and he needed days of repose to see it clothe itself again with the illusions of his senses, the white purity of its snows, the splendor of its light, and the infinity of its heavenly peace. Nature was kind; Lake Geneva was beautiful beyond itself, and the Alps put on charms real as terrors; but man became chaotic, and before the illusions of Nature were wholly restored, the illusions of Europe suddenly vanished, leaving a new world to learn.
  On July 4, all Europe had been in peace; on July 14, Europe was in full chaos of war. One felt helpless and ignorant, but one might have been king or kaiser without feeling stronger to deal with the chaos. Mr. Gladstone was as much astounded as Adams; the Emperor Napoleon was nearly as stupefied as either, and Bismarck: himself hardly knew how he did it. As education, the outbreak of the war was wholly lost on a man dealing with death hand-to-hand, who could not throw it aside to look at it across the Rhine. Only when he got up to Paris, he began to feel the approach of catastrophe. Providence set up no affiches to announce the tragedy. Under one’s eyes France cut herself adrift, and floated off, on an unknown stream, towards a less known ocean. Standing on the curb of the Boulevard, one could see as much as though one stood by the side of the Emperor or in command of an army corps. The effect was lurid. The public seemed to look on the war, as it had looked on the wars of Louis XIV and Francis I, as a branch of decorative art. The French, like true artists, always regarded war as one of the fine arts. Louis XIV practiced it; Napoleon I perfected it; and Napoleon III had till then pursued it in the same spirit with singular success. In Paris, in July, 1870, the war was brought out like an opera of Meyerbeer. One felt one’s self a supernumerary hired to fill the scene. Every evening at the theatre the comedy was interrupted by order, and one stood up by order, to join in singing the Marseillaise to order.

E9/ 164/ WALTER KENNEDY LAWRIE/ SCOTLAND
A beautiful Neoclassical tomb showing the wife and son mourning the spouse and father whose medallion bas relief bust is portrayed within an ourobouros.  This is one among several tombs with a portrait medallion: A64/ GEORGE AUGUSTUS WALLIS by Aristodemos Costoli, A15/ ANNE SUSANNA (LLOYD) HORNER by Francesco Jerace; AB7/ INA BOSS SAULTER, by Ettore Ximenes; B4/ ELENA NIKITICNA DIK, NATA AKZYNOVA by Fyodor Fyodorovitsch Kamensky; C3/ THOMAS SOUTHWOOD SMITH by Joel T. Hart; D108/ THEODORE PARKER by William Wetmore Story; D127/ JAMES ROBERTS, by Joel T. Hart?; E12/ JAMES LORIMER GRAHAM, JR by Launt Thompson; E9/ WALTER KENNEDY LAWRIE by Pietro Bazzanti, F27/ PHILIPPINA (SIMONS) CIAMPI, Joel T. Hart(?) The Raeburn portrait of 'Walter Kennedy Lawrie of Woodhall, Lauriston', 1815, now in Philadelphia may be of his grandfather, likewise the copy of Thomas Busby's A General History of Music, 1819 with his bookplate, currently on sale by an Italian bookseller, indicating it may have come to Italy by way of his grandson. His spouse is Clorinda, his son Walter, who marries a Giulia, both of whom we see sculpted on this tomb in classical garb, as we see also with the tombs for B20/ JOHAN CLAES LAGERSVARD and D126/ CHARLES WITAL. The Webbs add:  'Walter Kennedy Lawrie I've been trying to disentangle the ancestry of this man, who I suspect was consumptive – certainly at 31 he was young to die.  Lord Malmesbury, from time to time an incompetent Foreign Secretary, remembered him in his Memoirs, published in 1885: ''There was at that time [1832] in Florence a Scotch banker of the name of Lawrie, who had a very good gallery of pictures.  He had married a most beautiful girl of poor parents in Florence, having taken her as a child and educated her for his wife.  We made her acquaintance, and found her a very pleasant and ladylike person.' The wife was Clorinda Aretini, and (to judge from the fact that WKL received Protestant burial) it was a mixed marriage.  She, their one son, another Walter Kennedy, and his wife Julia, were all buried up at San Miniato.  The son too died youngish, on 1 February 1875, although it's not quite clear how old he was – 'in the flower of his age' according to his monument, so not much more than 40, if that.  The 'good gallery of pictures' included one that was believed to be a Raphael, but is now thought to be a copy of the 'Madonna di Loreto' in the Musée Condé at Chantilly.  The younger Walter Kennedy Lawrie in the 1850s had it scrutinised by experts in Rome who pronounced it to be genuine (only modern x-rays have proved otherwise). What the elder Walter Kennedy's activity as a banker was I don't know – Malmesbury is the only authority that I have for this occupation – but where his money came from is hardly in doubt.  His father William Kennedy was a Jamaica planter, born in 1769, who in 1802 inherited Laurieston, an estate in Galloway, from a Walter Sloane Laurie.  As people so often did in these circumstances, he added the name Laurie (or Lawrie) to his own.  He already had children, including a Thomas who probably stayed in the West Indies, and a William who probably came with him to Scotland, but I think he was married again, in Edinburgh in 1805, to the daughter of another West Indies planter. Our Walter – who was given the name of the man from whom his father had acquired the Galloway estate – looks like the child of this marriage and was born (someone says) 20 August 1806, but I can't find out where.  It was at some point in that year that his father William received a letter from the manager of his estate in Jamaica, which was called Woodhall, reporting on the purchase of slaves and lamenting the shortage of females, which was due to 'the lengths to which the abolition business has been carried in England'.   William Kennedy died in 1811, and I suspect that the Raeburn is a portrait of him, not of a Walter.  Not only do these two names often get confused, but I simply can’t find any previous Walter Kennedy Lawrie.  The fact that William Kennedy took the additional name only on his inheritance in 1802 rather argues against it.   The name Woodhall was later given to the family's estate in Galloway, which was inherited by the son William already mentioned, who would on this reading be Walter's older half-brother.  Was young Walter delicate?  Was that why he turns up, aged not yet 20, in Florence? (He subscribes to Vieusseux in February of that year.)  And did he transmit a weak constitution to his son?  What he did transmit was money.  If Malmesbury was right that his wife's family were poor, they suddenly found that as the child's guardians they had the management of a fortune.  And part of it – which I have only just found out – consisted of palazzi, one in Borgo SS Apostoli and one on the opposite bank of the Arno, which housed the much-frequented Hotel variously called the Quattro Nazioni or Quatre Nations.  There seems to have been a bit of a spat with an hotelier who thought he owned it before the guardians put in one of their own – an Aretini – as manager in 1839.  They were now calling it the Albergo Reale dell' Arno, although to judge by Vieusseux people went on staying at the Quatre Nations'.

WhiteSilence

Life may give for love to death
Little; what are life's gifts worth
To the dead wrapt round with earth?
Yet from lips of living breath
Sighs or words we are fain to give,
All that yet, while yet we live,
Life may give for love to death.

Dead so long before his day,
Passed out of the Italian sun
To the dark where all is done,
Fallen upon the verge of May;
Here at life's and April's end
How should song salute my friend
Dead so long before his day?

Not a kindlier life or sweeter
Time, that lights and quenches men,
Now may quench or light again,
Mingling with the mystic metre
Woven of all men's lives with his
Not a clearer note than this,
Not a kindlier life or sweeter.

In this heavenliest part of earth
He that living loved the light,
Light and song, may rest aright,
One in death, if strange in birth,
With the deathless dead that make
Life the lovelier for their sake
In this heavenliest part of earth.

Light, and song, and sleep at last --
Struggling hands and suppliant knees
Get no goodlier gift than these.
Song that holds remembrance fast,
Light that lightens death, attend
Round their graves who have to friend
Light, and song, and sleep at last.

The patriarch is Thomas Goodban, music teacher in Canterbury. His middle son, Edward Goodban, was an engraver and music teacher in Canterbury, Kent, and then, by 1856, bookseller in Florence, mentioned in Susan Horner's Diary, 1862, 'Called at Goodban's to inquire if he had a copy of Mrs Barbauld's hymns in Italian', and his business was still going strong in 1885, according to WD Howells' An Indian Summer. Frederic is Edward's youngest brother, Thomas' youngest son, likely visiting Florence, when he dies. Edward and Rose Goodban's two-year-old son C34/ ARTHUR VICTOR GOODBAN is buried in Sector C.

E29/ (148) 703/ WILLIAM SOMERVILLE/ SCOTLAND
His father's death is noted in Bell's Weekly Messenger (No.1770, Sunday, February 28, 1830): 'We regret to learn that the Rev. Dr. Somerville, so eminently distinguished as the historian of Queen Anne, and for other valuable works, died at Jedburgh Manse, at a very advanced age, on Sunday last. The Rev. Doctor was the father of a Scottish church. He had assisted in the communion services in the church of his own parish on the Sabbath preceding, and apparently with no decrease of energy or zeal; but he was taken ill on the evening of that day, and continued to linger, peacefully waiting for his rest, till his departure, as we have said, on the Sabbath of the week following, much about the hour, of the evening when he was first taken ill.--At Jedburgh, on the 16th inst. after a few days illness, the Rev. Dr. SOMERVILLE, in the 90th year of his age, and the 63d in which he had discharged the active duties of a Minister.--Edinburgh paper'. British Library: Title: The History of Great Britain during the reign of Queen Anne, with a dissertation concerning the danger of the Protestant Succession, and an appendix containing original papers. Author: SOMERVILLE. Thomas. D.D. Publication details:  pp. xxvii. 674. A. Strahan, etc.: London, 1798. 4o. Author of many other books including against slavery. His son, William Somerville, a surgeon in the army, eventually doctor at Chelsea Hospital, who is buried here is the husband of the Scottish mathematician and astronomer Mary Somerville who predicted the existence of Neptune and Pluto. Mary Somerville encouraged Ada Byron, Countess Lovelace (Lord Byron's daughter), in her pursuit of mathematics, Ada Byron and Charles Babbage creating the modern computer. Mary Somerville's bust is honoured in the Royal Society of which her husband and her son were made members. She is buried in Naples' Cimitero degli Inglesi, beneath her life-size figure sculpted by the young Calabrian sculptor, Francesco Gerace, who also did the medallion of her friend, A15/ ANNE SUSANNA (LLOYD) HORNER. Somerville College, Oxford, is named after her.  This is the first entry in the Guildhall Register under header 'Duchy of Tuscany'. There would be space for the tomb of Mary Somerville and her daughters opposite that of Elizabeth Barrett Browning. In Naples it lacks the plaque and no one knows who she is. A project for IBM?

George Hobart, became Roman Catholic, 1890, was made prothonotary apostolic, "which not only gave him the right to wear the purple, but with the consent of the bishop of the diocese the pectoral cross and miter." 2. William Croswell, who in turn became an Episcopalian Bishop. She dies at the Villa Capponi, following the trauma of the sack of Perugia from which she never recovered.

E35/ 537/ MARY FARHILL/ ENGLAND
Small, clever, generous and eccentric, she was ennobled in Fiesole's Order of St Stephen. JLMaquay, Diaries, 3/4/1854 'Miss Farhill found drowned in her bath yesterday evening. 70 yrs old, no-one knows who her relations are, has lived at Villa Boccaccio half her life.' Though in Florence they thought she had no family when she died at the Villa Palmieri, her brother Edward Farhill carefully arranges her burial in both English and Italian in a grand tomb. The Morning Post noted she willed her villa to the Grand Duchess of Tuscany, Maria Antonia. In the 1870s it came into the possession of the Earl of Belcarres and Crawford, Lord Lindsay, whose descendant is Lord Crawford, who now owns the album of Felicité de Fauveau(E48)'s photographed sculptures. Dumas and Queen Victoria were guests under its roof. It later became Vernon Lee's residence .

His younger sister Caroline was born in 1814 in Ceylon and was only 16 when she married Campbell Riddell in 1830 in Colombo. Their mother had died when she was a baby and their father married several times.

E47/ 585/ ELIZABETH (ATTFIELD BALL) JOPLING/ ENGLAND
Her husband Joseph Jopling is an architect and railroad engineer. See E2/ EMMA MATILDA BALL in this same Sector, who has the same inscription and who had witnessed Elizabeth Attfield's first marriage, to Francis Ball in Paddington in 1844. The notice about Joseph Jopling's third marriage, to Louisa Attfield, to raise the children of his second marriage, to Elizabeth Attfield - thus now to his deceased wife's sister - was against the law in England. Holman Hunt's marriage to Fanny Waugh(B9/ FANNY WAUGH HUNT)'s sister Edith Waugh to raise Cyril Benoni after Fanny's death, was likewise illegal and likewise carried out in Switzerland. Joseph Jopling is among the signatories to a petition to change this law, presented to Lord Derby, 4/5/1858, reported in the Daily News.

A doctor, he was created a Knight, 1836. JLMaquay, Diaries 28/12/1855 'attended Sir C. Herberts funeral at 8 this morning'. His tomb was sculpted by Felicie de Fauvau, a French Royalist sculptress living in exile in Florence. B42/ ISABELLA BLAGDEN publishes a fine essay on Felicie de Fauveau. Its pietra serena caused it to fragment. We found one piece with the chalice and could only identify it from the photograph in Lord Lindsay's scrapbook, now in the possession of his heir, Lord Crawford, in Scotland.

E56/ (152) 840/ CHILDREN OF ELIZABETH AND HIRAM POWERS
At first the Powers family planned on coming home to America and Hiram kept Frances' embalmed body in readiness for the voyage. Then, realizing they would not likely return, they elected to bury these three children in Florence's 'English' Cemetery, the father designing the severe heavy 'ohalim' tomb, which his son Preston Powers would later copy for that for his father, B32 HIRAM POWERS in Sector B. The face of five-year-old James Gibson Powers is of great sweetness, reminding one of Arnolfo di Cambio's sculpted face for the Virgin as child and soul. Later, Hiram Powers, as American Consul, wrote to E7/ FRANCIS ALLEN WOODALL's widow in Kentucky about the cemetery where her husband and his children lie: 'Mr Woodall's grave is in the same cemetery where three of my own children are buried. A more beautiful spot could hardly be found. It is against the outer wall of the city and it looks more like a beautiful garden than a place of the dead. In the spring and summer the place blooms with flowers, and even in winter there are some roses lingering over the graves. . . . I indeed go to the graves of my children and my tears fall upon their graves while I look up, giving to earth her just tribute . . . She may claim our bodies but not our souls'. Their mother, Elizabeth Gibson Powers, and the other children, Nicholas Longworth Powers, Louisa Greenough Powers, Georgiana Rose Powers, and William Preston Powers are buried in the Allori Cemetery, the remains of Preston (who sculpted B32 HIRAM POWERS  and B37 LILLIE NYE's tombs, now lying in their Ossario Comune.

On the Staff of the Portuguese Army May 1812 - Apr 1814. Served throughout the campaign as ADC to Lord Beresford. Present at the Corunna campaign, Talavera, Coa, Agueda, Busaco, Cuidad Rodrigo, Badajoz, San Sebastian, Nivelle, Nive, Orthes, Bayonne and Toulouse. MGS , medal with ten clasps for Corunna, Talavera, Busaco, Cuidad Rodrigo, Badajoz, San Sebastian, Nivelle, Nive, Orthes and Toulouse. CB. Also in Maida and South America, 1807, on the staff of Lord Beresford. Commanded a Portuguese Cavalry regiment 1816. From 1828 - 54 served in India as Deputy Master General, then in command at Bangalore, then divisional commander at Madras and finally Commander-in-Chief of the Madras Army. Returned to England in 1854 and became Colonel of the 79th Cameron Highlanders. Made KCB in 1861. Retired in 1856. Educated at Westminster and Eton, he was W.H. Robertson. On entering the army he took the name of Sewell. Reference: Jameson, Robert. Historical record of the 79th Regiment of Foot, or Cameron Highlanders. 1863'. P. 136. Sewell descendants note he was godson and natural son of King William IV and that Queen Victoria kept him out of the country. Captain Jack Sewell rang the Cemetery's bell in 1945 to see the tombs and took this photograph. I have insisted on preserving this bell intact and in working order, and I have the children burying their parents ring it in order for them to have some control over the chaos at that moment in their lives. In the photograph one can still see the chalice intact on the tomb sculpted by Felicie de Fauveau for E48 SIR CHARLES LYON HERBERT's tomb. One can also see the damage done by a rusting paperclip. Here is part of his letter home to England:

Dearest People, . . . At the moment I'm on leave in Florence & enjoying it a lot. . . I found the General's grave yesterday and his wife's side by side, & took a photo. . . I don't suppose another member of the family will have the opportunity for a long time. What I did decipher was as follows:- 'Beneath this sacred symbol of salvation repose the mortal remains of Gen. Sir. W.H.S., K.E.B., Colonel of 79 Highlanders, who departed this life at Florence 13th March 1862. His wife Georgina Hacking, died on 1 May 1872. His tomb is No 778. The graveyard is in the centre of the Piazza Donatello, in the main boulevard, the Viale Principe Amadeo, Viale Principe Eugenio. It took some time to find the grave once I had looked up the caretaker's book & found his name, as there was no plan . . . The grave is on the right of the central pathway as you go toward the centre of the cemetery, about 5 yards from the path, & almost opposite E.B.B.'s . . . It is closed to the dead now, but the living may enter by pulling on the bell rope at the main gate & waiting till the caretaker or his wife comes to open.

E60/ 727/ HOMAN MULOCK/ IRELAND
His father, Thomas Homan Mulock, a physician, educated in Dublin at the Royal College of Surgeons and the Medical School of Trinity College, died young, and the family, twelve children in all, lived in genteel poverty. A sister, Elizabeth Georgina, three years earlier, marries a member of the Bengal Artillery at Villa Normanby. Another sister, Hester, four years later, marries Alfred Austin, Poet Laureate, who will publish B42/ ISABELLA BLAGDEN's poems. Wikipedia: 'On 14 November 1865 Austin married Hester Jane Homan-Mulock, tenth child of Thomas Homan-Mulock and Frances Sophia Berry at Marylebone Parish Church, London. In his Autobiography, Austin gives a curious account of their first meeting with her. Seeing the photograph of a young lady in an album belonging to a friend in Florence, he had asked: ‘Who is that?’ and received the reply, ‘The girl you ought to marry, if you can.’ Austin brought home a letter of introduction, the presentation of which led to his receiving at his cottage in Hertfordshire two of the Misses Mulock and their chaperon, together with their friend T.A. Trollope, brother of Anthony Trollope. At the second visit Hester became engaged to Alfred. Throughout his career as journalist and writer Austin derived constant help and support from his wife. She died suddenly on 23 September 1929 at her residence in Kensington'. A relative became Sir William Mulock, a lawyer, educator, politician, in Canada: Wikipedia. This consumptive 14 year-old is the first burial in a plot purchased by E58/ SIR WILLIAM HENRY SEWELL, a natural son of King William IV of England. Is this an act of charity by the General or by Elizabeth Georgina Mulock's husband, or by both? The widowed, orphaned Mulocks would have been unlikely to have paid these costly funeral expenses. The Webbs note that it is also the first entry in the Guildhall Library Register with the simple heading 'Tuscany', now merely a province in the Kingdom of Italy and no longer its capital. Notes and Queries supplies the now lost inscription.

E61 = B Marker. Originally the Cemetery was divided into four sectors, A to the left of the column, B to the right, with C and D beyond the Column. then this ordering was reversed to being counter-clockwise with six sectors. We have compromised between the two versions, being clockwise but having six sectors instead of four as otherwise our electronic files would be too large.

E67/ 950/ MAJOR SAMUEL CHARTERS/ ENGLAND
'In the interim word of these events had reached the Cape, and early in December 1838 the Governor of the Cape, Sir George Napier, sent a contingent of 80 men of the 72nd Highlanders and Royal Artillery, under the command of Major Samuel Charters (E67/ MAJOR SAMUEL CHARTERS), to protect British interests at Port Natal. They landed on 3 December and immediately set about erecting fortifications and a stockade at the Point, with quarters built of mangrove poles, reeds and thatch brought from the head of the bay. The resultant structure was named Fort Victoria, and was located approximately on the present site of Alexandra Square. The party included Theophilus Shepstone, a young translator who, in later years, became known to the Zulu as Somtseu. Charters and Shepstone then met with members of the Republican Volksraad in Pietermaritzburg, where it was communicated to them that, as far as the British Government was concerned, they were still citizens of the Cape. Presumably they would also have been reminded of the contents of Proclamation 56 of 13 August 1836 which, among other things, considered that any offences committed against the Black residents of the Zulu territories would be “punished, in such and the same Manner as if the same had been committed within the said Colony”. Shepstone and Charters then packed their bags and left the garrison in charge of Capt Jarvis, a man of discretion who then did his best to settle Dutch emotions. Having achieved their objectives the British withdrew their troops on 24 December 1839, leaving the Dutch to raise their flag soon thereafter over Fort Victoria. Regardless of British motives in this regard, their withdrawal from the Bay must have sent a strong message to the Dutch: that the British government had no interest in Natal and would not stand in their way should they decide to settle there'. His first wife, E69/ EMILY CHARTERS, is also buried in this Sector. Webbs, Anglo-Florentines, pp. 424.

This mother and her 3 year-old son, who predeceased her by a year, are laid together under a broken column, signifying they have died too young. Family records say that she married in Devon in 1844. Another child, Emilius Charles Horace 'Emilio', baptised 24 August 1852, dies following the ordering of her tombstone, 3 June 1853, and therefore is not named on it. Their husband and father died in Brazil 3 October 1859. She is not the only Aurora in this Cemetery, a name Elizabeth Barrett Browning (B8) chose for her eponymous epic's heroine in Aurora Leigh.

His father was the Rev. Denham James Joseph Cookes, his mother Maria Henrietta, daughter of Charles Johnstone, second son of the Marchioness Annandale, by her second husband Colonel Johnstone. Woodhampton House, Worcestershire, still exists. JLMaquay, Diaries 18/4/1847 he goes to see the last day of the races at the Cascie. 'and Denham Cooke road a horse of Lord Ashtown, Paddy, and on leaping the first hurdle came in contact with another horse . . . fell on his head the horse also falling on him, he was taken up insensible and carried to the [?] house from where he was taken by the Misericordia to [Grove?] at Casa Standish'. Cookes was attended by three doctors, two stayed with him the first night, as did JLM. JLM stayed with him again on 20th and on the 21st when he died. 23/4/1844 'he was opened this morning no internal injury or injury to the head. The brain[?] blood in small quantity in 3 places caused his death'. 24/4/1847 funeral 'very well attended Packenham, Demidoff, Ashtown, Knox, Tysen, Weld and Brunill, Murray [Grove?] and myself. Many Italians attended.' The Misericordia archconfraternity in Florence, founded 700 years ago and laying the first stone of the Duomo, care for the sick and bury the dead, while always wearing, until recently, black hoods masking their faces. The only other accidental death I know of from horses in the Cemetery is the death from tetanus of LOUISA CATHERINE (ADAMS) KUHN, from an overturned carriage. Yet this was the main form of transportation in the Victorian period. See Webbs, Anglo-Florentines, pp, 68, 140.141.

I am single , and live in Prospect Cottages, Barnsbury-park, Islington; this writing-desk stood in my drawing-room. On the 26th of September I was in my parlour, which is separated from my drawing-room by a passage; between two and three o'clock in the afternoon, I was alarmed by a violent ringing at the bell - I got up, and went to the window - I saw two persons standing by our rails, the gate was locked - they said a robbery had been committed - I went into the drawing-room, and found the window and blinds wide open; the blinds had been shut before, and the window a little up, to admit the air - I was then desired to look about the room, and I missed the desk, which I had seen on the table; but I cannot say I had seen it that day. ROBERT OLDFIELD. I am a milkman. On the 26th of September, between twelve and one o'clock, I saw the prisoners with another person, at the corner of Prospect-row - I passed them twice, and went home, which is two hundred yards off - I was working in the field, and saw them looking about - I saw Bishop go into the fore-court, and get over the iron-rails into the prosecutrix's fore-court, and get in at the window: he came out in two minutes with something wrapped in a bag or apron, and gave it to the man, who is not here - Dumon stood at the corner, while Bishop went in, and the other received the article from Bishop, and went down Brooksby-street - the prisoners went another way - I rang the bell, and told the lady - I followed, and took them in Park-street - a man, who works for the lady, seized Dumon, who knocked him down - the street-keeper came by, and took them.Cross-examined by MR. BARRY. Q. Were they strangers to you? A. Yes; the parcel seemed about the size of a desk. THOMAS COPE. I live in Elliott-place, Lower-road, Islington. I saw Dumon strike another man, and knock him down - I secured him and Bishop - I found on Dumon a bad sovereign, or gilt farthing, and one of Bramah's patent keys. BISHOP'S Defence. He swore to Dumon first, and then to me. BISHOP - GUILTY . Aged 21. DUMON - GUILTY . Aged 17.Transported for Seven Years'.

E84/ LOUISA MARY (TESCHEMACHER) YARNOLD in this sector was a Teschemacher before her marriage and could be sister to Anne Clementia and Edward Frederick.
