 She painted in water colours.

" There is another in the churchyard of Moreton-in 

 Marsh, which speaks thus : 



" ' Here lie the bones of Eichard Lawton, 



Whose death, alas ! was strangely brought on. 



Trying one day his corns to mow off, 



The razor slipped and cut his toe off: 



His toe, or rather what it grew to, 



An inflammation quickly flew to, 



Which took, alas ! to mortifying, 



And was the cause of Richard's dying.'

" ' Here lies the body of 



* * * * 



" ' And when he died he owed 

 Nobody nothing.' 



" Another from Bideford, Devonshire : 



" ' The wedding day appointed was, 

 And wedding clothes provided, 

 And when the day arrive it did, 

 She sickened and she dieded.'
