One Year On?

Exactly a year ago today, in another place, I posted this. I only mention it now because the other day I strolled along to the cemetery to see if a headstone had yet been put up. It had, and very fine and dignified it was - just his name and dates and the single word 'Schoolmaster'. But the funny thing is that, unless my eyes or mind were deceiving me, the date given for his death was the 26th September, i.e. tomorrow. It seems they somehow got it wrong. If so, I'm sure he'd have been amused. .

  1. I remember vividly your touching reminiscence. A good teacher is always revered, and should be.
