Clara Barton built for herself, at her own expense, a very unpretentious memorial in her family burying ground at Oxford; Her Majesty the Queen unveiled the memorial to Florence Nightingale in the crypt of St. Paul’s Cathedral, London, where are the tombs of Nelson, Wellington, Wolsey and Lord Roberts. The plain granite monument to Clara Barton in the country cemetery bears the inscription: CLARA BARTON ANGEL OF THE BATTLEFIELD Civil War 1861–1865. Franco-Prussian War 1870–1871. Spanish-American War 1898. Organizer and President of the American National Red Cross 1881–1904. December 25, 1821–April 12, 1912. BARTON The memorial to Florence Nightingale is a beautiful sculpture in white marble, representing Florence Nightingale bending over a wounded soldier, to whose lips she is holding a cup. A rich alabaster frame surrounds the marble, inscribed above with a legend, “Blessed are the merciful” and below: Florence Nightingale, O. M.; born May 12, 1820—died August 13th, 1910. Of two famous women be it written: Their bodies are buried in peace; but their names live for evermore.
