Foreign News: Garden of Memory
Edward of Wales sent a sheaf of pink & red roses last week to be laid with other sheaves around an apple tree in the "Garden of Memory" at Himley Hall, Worcestershire. Just eight months ago a seven-year-old boy was buried in this garden. Cycling, he had been run over by a truck. Last week his mother was laid beside him. She, young and lovely Rosemary Millicent Viscountess Ednam, perished in the mysterious airplane crash in Kent fortnight ago when six Britons were killed. The card which H. R. H. sent with his pink & red mourning roses last week read: "With love from E. P."*
*i. e. "Edward, Prince." Most royalties sign merely their Christian names "Olaf," "Julana," etc. etc.
