[James Douglas was a chorister at St George's Chapel, Windsor from July 14 1847 to around 1852] Our Schoolmaster Mr Josiah French was a Lay Clerk & possessed a good Bass voice – he was a very popular man & and the rooms in his house were covered with pictures, so closely hung together that you could scarcely put your little finger between them, he had also a very fine collection of autographs of which he was very proud. […] Mr French died suddenly from heart disease as he was returning rather hastily into Chapel for something he had left behind. This was a great blow to us all. |
