Later on, we often drove in that direction, to look at what became known to us as "The Stone of Destiny," and when, more than twenty years afterwards, the story appeared in print, we received a letter informing us that the little row was about to be pulled down to make room for larger and better houses to be built in their place. The letter came from one interested in the property—a Mr. Bennett—who kindly asked if we would accept the "talisman"; and he afterwards left it at our door. The stone was taken by us from one home to another; it is now let into the wall of the mausoleum I built for my wife in Brompton Cemetery, where all that is left of her in this world is at rest and where there is room for me.
