Framed Print of The Real Maid of Kent: Miss C. Heathorn, of Maidstone, aged 100, 1883. Creator: Unknown
The Real Maid of Kent: Miss C. Heathorn, of Maidstone, aged 100, 1883. We are much obliged to the Rev. Thomas Harvey, Vicar... for sending us [a] Portrait of Miss Catherine Heathorn, a venerable and generally beloved old lady, which will give pleasure to her neighbours, and to our readers all over the world. He...states that she was baptized in All Saints Church, Maidstone, on April 17, 1783...this lady...seems to have passed some years of her life at Gravesend, and latterly to have returned to her native town, where she lives at the house of her grand-niece, Mrs. A. E. Rowcroft. She had an opportunity soon after the battle of Trafalgar, which was fought on October 21, 1805, of going on board the "Victory, " Nelson's flagship, when it came home, and saw the decks stained with blood and torn with bullets and cannon-shot. Miss Heathorn's private deeds of charity, "her gentle thoughtfulness for all who are in need or in sorrow, " and her delightful cheerfulness in extreme old age, her "love for all, even for the erring, " are strongly attested by a local correspondent, who ascribes these virtues of the Maid of Kent to "her earnest piety and thorough trust in the All-Father." She still enjoys the full use of nearly all her faculties'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
