Quote #10
And when he had lived long, and was borne to his grave, a hoary corpse, followed by Faith, an aged woman, and children and grand-children, a goodly procession, besides neighbors, not a few, they carved no hopeful verse upon his tomb-stone; for his dying hour was gloom.
It seems like the people of Salem will remember Brown mainly because he was such a downer. His tombstone, with "no hopeful verse," will be a cautionary reminder that future generations should, you know, live a little—and stop thinking the worst about people.
