Hmmm.  Hadn't considered that interpretation.

Somewhere in Massachusetts (I think western), driving through in 1967 we happened upon 
an old cemetery overgrown with weeds.  One of the headstones was for two brothers - one 
who died at age 12 and another at 21 a couple years later.  The epitaph on the stone read 
"Few and evil were their days".  I've wondered what a 12 year old kid could 
have done to deserve that remembrance.

I have photographed many small cemeteries in Massachusetts, where most of my

I am waiting for my brother to finish with his slide and film scanner. When I 
get it I can post my earliest graveyard photo, taken with a Hanimex Praktika 
around 1970.
