A Visit to my old friend, Amanda Lashbbrooks

Today was very hot but I had been concerned about the state of Amanda Lashbbrooks.

Amanda gives me pause to think from time to time. You see I only know her because of a message she left

So long ago.


 

Amanda is buried about thirty paces south south-west of the old cannon in Pine Ridge. I first found her there about

four years ago. She has given me a reason to think about her life and my own several times since. Amanda's tombstone has a special note ,you see.


 

Sacred to the Memory of

Amanda

Wife of Edwin Lashbbrooks

Born June 25, 1851 Died Sept 9, 1875

As you are now I once was

As I am now so must you be

Prepare for death and follow me
