He talked well to us : they sung a hymn, and he made the prayer. The little creat- ure was put into a mahogany coffin, with a plate on the top with the following inscription: 'John W. Todd, who died October 15, 1827, aged nine days. ' Without any parade or bell, he was carried in a chaise, and I rode alone in my chaise, and saw him softly laid in Doctor Chaplin's tomb, in the very spot where the good man himself expects to lie. When that event takes place, I intend to have him placed beside the... old man's head, or on his breast, that in the morning of the Resurrection they may rise together. It seemed to be his wish to have him entombed there, and it was gratifying to us, for it seems as if even the grave would be sanctified by his remains. " Years afterward he wrote : " I shall perish sooner than forget the feelings which I had clinging around our dear first-born. I know that we did not deserve him, and that it was all right; but my aching- heart too frequently goes back to that dear lost one, and the wems of all the earth could not compensate for the loss of that one.
