Description

English: A monument commemorating the murder of Jane Clouson (1871). It currently stands in Brockley Cemetery. Photographed on 15 April 2018. The statuette that tops the memorial is a copy of Luigi Pampaloni's Prayer or Samuel in Prayer, now in the Nervi Galleria d’Arte Moderna, Genoa. The inscription reads "In the memory of Jane Maria Clouson, a motherless girl who was murdered in Kidbrooke Lane Eltham on the night of Tuesday 25th of April 1871. She was taken to Guy's Hospital where she died on Sunday April 30th 1871. Aged 17 years. She was agreeable in manner, amiable and affectionate in disposition. Her last words were: "Oh! Let me Die." May God's great pity touch his heart and lead My murderer to confess his dreadful deed, That when the secrets of all hearts are known, Guilt and repentance alike may be shown. This monument was erected by public subscription."
