About In 17something, she got pregnant out of wedlock. She drowned herself in shame.She was not given decent burial because of that, but dumped in a hole banished outside her village. The acid peat of the island of Hoy(Orkney) preserved her body, which was found almost intact in 19something. She was then given a proper stone and is now resting in the middle of absolutely nowhere. A forlorn heart wrenching monument to Betty and lots of sisters like her, victims because women.

Kita this story moved me a lot and the photo is a piece of art...
I have read about these situations with women in UK and the "special" asylums for them. It is great that you bring the topic here. I will think about her...Maybe she remained intact waiting for the right treatment...Well-done...

oh, Kita, what a story, it wrenches the soul to read it and then look at the pink tinged fencing, reminding me of a crib..for Betty and her baby...it hurts terribly to look at it. How can i possibly deal in technicalities here? i feel like kneeling down and making the sign of the cross. So powerful, Kita..thank you..kat~

I looked at the whiteness here and thought of dying.
Death as whiteness, an overwhelming.
This is a reach for the flaming lips "Do you realise?" photo.
I left a reply for you by the way.

Sembra assurdo, anche la natura si è accanita contro di lei, come se avesse commesso chissà quale peccato!!! Grazie del chiarimento, baci!!!

Storia incredibile, ma temo tuttora attuale in alcune parti del mondo, è una testimonianza toccante, bella anche la foto, con un mood molto profondo, peccato non si veda meglio la scritta sulla lapide. Ciao, baci. Max
