Clifton Barritt (1869-1929) Hampstead Cemetery London

A not especially successful vaudevillian - his best notice was featured in the Sussex Agricultural Express of 17 October 1903 for a concert held in Uckfield Public Hall; 

"Mr. Barritt was responsible for the comic element. He showed how songs of the ephemeral type could be arranged by Sousa, Mendelssohn, and Wagner but was at his best in his imitations. He successively imitated a rusty phonograph, a violoncello (using Elgar's "Saint d'Amour), a clarinet, banjo, and finally two instruments together, the mandolin and cornet (in "Whisper and I shall hear' ). Again he showed "The charge of the Light Brigade' could be recited by people afflicted with various eccentricities. has a fund of racy anecdotes, and is always "funny without being vulgar.""

The man who buried himself - Vital Douat, St Patricks Catholic Cemetery, Leyton
St Patrick's Roman Catholic Cemetery, Leyton On
Sunday 3 December 1865 Father McQuoid presided over what must have struck him
as a unusual funeral at St Patrick’s Roman Catholic Cemetery in Leyton. The
deceased, a French wine merchant from Bordeaux called M...

I was rather taken with this sinister pair in Hampstead  East Cemetery. The Madonna looks like a nun in a gimp mask, like the one Hannibal Lector wears when he is trussed up for public safety. Those staring eyes have murder and madness in them. The angel behind is even more disturbing - not more than 12 years old, coyly raising her skirt.....there is something really not right about it.

interred in the vault belongin...

Always funny, but without being vulgar - Charles Herbert 'Clifton' Barritt (1869-1929), Hampstead Cemetery
You might imagine
that an funerary monument in the form of a life size pipe organ could only cover the grave or a church
organist or a classical musician with a soft spot for Bach’s Toccata and Fugue
in D minor.   There is some evidence Charles
Herbert Barr...
