Following directly behind the bier were the servants who would, in earlier times, have been slaughtered at the graveside, along with a warrior's horse. Musicians and torchbearers came next, with the rear taken up by the mimes- sinister, silent figures in wax masks modelled on dead members of the family. ↗

On the eleventh of June, 1805, a torrid fire engulfed a small town in the Michigan Territory. An unflappable local priest, Father Gabriel Richard, assessed the devastation by proclaiming “Speramus meliora; resurget cineribus.” The Latin phrase, having the equivalent of “We hope for better things; it shall rise from the ashes” in English, would become the battered municipality’s motto. Two centuries on, the credo applies more than it ever has, for that town was none other than Detroit and it has become ashes once more. ↗

Can I tell you something? It wasn't so bad. Not so bad at all right then, me scowling at the dirt, James in his bed, the way it always always was. Look, if that's all that happened, if his dying just meant that I would be waiting for him to say something instead of listening to him say something, it would have been fine. ↗
