Mercer Grave Restored in Time

The money was fortunately found to restore the grave of Cavalié Mercer and here I show a stonemason re-pointing the inscription. The race is to restore the grave in time for the ceremony on 18th June. It’s a particularly interesting and attractive grave and we can thank Robert Pocock in taking the initiative to organise the restoration. The Royal Regiment of Artillery have kindly made a contribution but the Waterloo Association have paid the lion’s share. Serjeant Gibson is looking forward to seeing the fully restored grave.
