"To Ludwig August Leakfield, Esq., died
Nov. 22, 1810, aged 48 years."

The following is rougher in form, but seems to have suffered from the
weather. It needs no explanation.

FIG. 41.--AT EAST WICKHAM.

"To Thomas Vere of Woolwich, shipwright,
died 10th August, 1789."

The two next subjects are to be found in many variations. The angel
with the cross in each case may represent salvation proclaimed.

FIG. 42.--AT SNARGATE.

"To Edward Wood, died Sept. 1779, aged
50 years."

FIG. 43.--AT EAST HAM.

"To Mr Richard Wright, died July 28, 1781,
aged 39 years."

The winged scroll in Fig. 44 is unfolded to display, we may suppose, a
register of good and holy deeds done in an extended life. The scythes
and the reversed torches may be taken at their usual significance,
which is death. This is copied from a stone in the churchyard of
Wilmington by Dartford Heath.
