guava gardens

In Lucknow, as in other parts of the world, graves mean little to some people, but a search on the internet proves otherwise! What one will find on this blog isn't even 'a drop in the vast ocean' of tears that would have been shed if it were possible to calculate. The names, the sad poetry, quotes and expression of grief of the loved ones all being ground to dust. "...We always say that the history of a parish is in its graveyards..." Passage West (from a blog and book by Jim Murphy)

The top pic is the recent one but the stone has been shifted to make room for fresh burials, while the bottom pic is what I put up earlier. I had question marks on a word which I was unable to read but the recent rain has cleaned out the muck soI that has been corrected .
