A Story Told
Caroline Co.--I cannot pass by an old church cemetary without stopping to take a look. There was a time when a grave marker, like this one, had more etched on it than just a name and dates.

SACRED

To the Memory of Jane
The Beloved Wife
Of the Rev. Henry Wall
Rector of this Church
She Died February 19, 1854
In the 35 Year of Her Age
Leaving Her Bereaved Husband
And Two Helpless Children
To Mourn Her Untimely Loss


"Even so Father
For so it Seemed Good in Thy Sight"
