The mourning card

From the funeral card

Card beautifully ornate, gold on black, for Nicholas Northup who died Feb. 3, 1894, aged 65 yrs. 9 mo. 19 da. Calla lilies, palm fronds, lily of the valley, wheat, and branches of other plants surround the verse and name.

The original page renders the surname both 'Northup' (page text and title) and 'Northrup' (image filename and alt text); the page's own text spelling is followed here. The card carries no place of death.
