Notes
- My mother completed her education at Ixelles, a suburb of Brussels, where besides learning, to speak French with equal fluency as English, she acquired a good reading knowledge of Italian. Her intimacy with the Sidneys was maintained for many years, and only late In life did the tie become weakened by distance and deaths.
The following epitaphs in raised letters are inscribed on the sides of the tomb.
Of your charity pray for the soul , of
Mary Anne Sidney Durrant,
Widow of George John Durrant, Esq.,
who departed this life on the 6th July, 1908,
in the 77th year of her age.
Give joy to the soul of Thy servant."
