notes:
Text describes [top] a wedding of domestic slaves of a rich household. [bottom] Two types of funeral processions for infants are shown. The first, more opulent, was paid for by the baby's mother who is a free Black woman. The second was paid for by the mistress of the house who thereby obtains a "little angel" to intercede for her in heaven.
