Lidian Emerson

In her youth an unusual sense of

the divine Presence was granted her

and she retained through life

the impress of that high Communion.

To her children she seemed in her

native ascendancy and unquestioning

courage a Queen, a Flower in

elegance and delicacy.

The love and care for her husband and

children was her first earthly interest

\but with overflowing compassion

her heart went out to the slave, the sick

and the dumb creation. She remembered

them that were in bonds as bound with them.

born in Concord 23 August 1774

She gave high counsels --

It was the privilege of certain boys

to have this immeasurably high standard

indicated to their childhood a blessing

which nothing else in education

could supply

(reverse)

Ah me! it was my childhood's thought

If He should make my web a blot

On life's fair picture of delight

My heart's content would find it right.

Ellen Tucker Emerson - Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, Concord, MA

Ellen

Tucker Emerson

Daughter of Ralph Waldo &

Lidian Emerson

Bor February 24, 1839

Died January 14, 1909

Her life was happy in that

"Among the scenes of real life, she wrought

Upon the plan that pleased her childish thought."

She cherished the old Religion.

It was her Guide through each day and the

Temple to which in solitude she withdrew.

The joy of her Father and Mother and

the comfort of their last years, her love

embraced the widest circle of kindred and friends.

She loved her Town.

She loved the simple and hardy life of old

New England, but exercised a wide and joyful

hospitality, and she eagerly helped others.

Of a fine mind, she cared more for persons than books, and her faith

drew out the best in those around her.
