We are accustomed to think that in cathedrals and other great ecclesiastical buildings the illustrious dead receive burial, and their names and claims on our gratitude and reverence are recorded, but in no Fane in the land is there so numerous a gathering of the dead as in this place.

W.H. Hudson

William de Morgan

"In the Border Country"
W. S. (William Shillinglaw) Crockett
