In an unprecedented and deeply disturbing article published by The Guardian, on Sunday, September 4th, "journalist" Amelia Tait lauds the systematic destruction of historical cemeteries through the application of hydrochloric acid to marble headstones. What Tait has done is encourage a trend that had already been increasing at an alarming rate all around the world over the past two years. The Scene of the Crime, this time, is Helensburgh Cemetery. The victims have been dead for over 92 years, and just recently what is perhaps the last trace of their existence has been removed from history. All three sisters were born in the same house in Glasgow, in the mid-19th century. and died in the same house in Helensburgh. (Helensburgh is 25 miles northwest of Glasgow). As Nott starts to spray: The gravestone slowly begins to sizzle as the hydrochloric acid he’s splashed on the memorial stone creates a noisy, bubbling fizz. A grey smoke curls up towards the sky and as he scrubs the memorial with a steel brush, a light sweat beads his brow. The stone features four intricately carved roses and each one is speckled with green moss and white lichen splodges. Nott takes out another brush, not unlike a children’s paintbrush, and works the acid into the petals. Quickly – so quickly that it almost seems like a magic trick – it becomes apparent that the headstone is made of white marble. Gorgeous, glistening, gleaming white marble on which the names of three long-departed sisters appear.” “(20+) Facebook.” Accessed September 5, 2022.   / pfbid0b36hgz31rbpegipzt6uag9arvwhegj41ocrb...  .
