Gravestone of the Day: Farnum Chickering

Farnum Chickering, 1824, Providence, RI
In Memory of
Mr.
Farnum Chickering
son of
Capt. Dean & Sarah Chickering
of Andover, Mass.
He died Dec. 1, 1824.
in the 37th year
of his age.

The Tingley family carving machine strikes again. I'm sure we can find a place for Farnum Chickering in The Memoirs of Fanny Forward.

I think Polycarpus Snell deserves a place in the novel, too. Perhaps as the Rev. Mr. Polycarpus Snell, M.A.
