Mystery

On the same walk down River Lane that saw me post yesterday about mindless grafitti and vandalism, I stumbled across something that made me catch my breath, and wonder (almost aloud) about its origin. About 80 yards before the road, I noticed a photo on the fence, and stopped, and read the following:


George White

Murdered on this pot
17th April 1904
Still Remembered


It's been over a hundred years since this event, and yet (presumably) a family member recalls this with sadness each year. Both a sad and powerful reminder of family love and ties.
