The January 30, 1900 York Press relates a lively little lawsuit filed by the stone cutter when his customer refused to take delivery. The case unfolded in the York County Common Pleas Court as reported below:
It was the late 1850s and photography was becoming quite popular in the area, so much so that E. A. King was offering monuments adorned with your likeness. If that didn't interest you, King also advertised that he could give you a good deal on marble stones.
The newspaper ad below first appeared April 7, 1857 and reappeared regularly though the year.
