Rufus Stone - Site of King William II death

Yet another strange find in Rochester, this was a very old picture of the Rufus Stone, the site marking King William II's death by arrow, which was erected in 1865.

See a contemporary photo of it here (the trees are gone and the area looks quite bare now): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Rufus_stone_side1.JPG

Child's Grave - Worcester, England 1900

Another morbid find from that Rochester antique store, a cabinet photo of a child's grave. "God called the little child."

Identical Twins Cabinet Print

This is one of the most interesting cabinet prints I own. I'm guessing it is late 1890s. I was thrilled to find it. I bought it in Sedalia, MO in the summer of 2006, at a strange, messy antique store that for some reason was open at 8 am on a Sunday.
