Feuds

Here's a juxtaposition for you. I took this photo at our local cemetery the other day. The headstone in the front is one for some members of the Frost family. The ones in the background are for members of the Coates family. You can read about the shootout that happened in 1865 between these families at the link above. Ironic isn't it, that they're placed right next to each other? I was struck by the irony and sadness of the situation. People can be so stupid.
