Lovely: A visit to Yosemite Cemetery by rare book librarian Megan Curran, over on The Order of the Good Death. By far the most beautiful grave in Yosemite Cemetery belongs to another teenager who succumbed to a fall. Effie Maud Crippen was aged “14 years 7 mos 22 days” according to her tombstone, when “she faltered by the wayside and the angels took her home.”
