Object number2007.68.13
InscribedOn recto, upper center, in letterpress, "S. Kellogg"

On verso, in brown ink, "From H. Page"; lower right, in pencil, accession numberNotesConstituent Note: "H. Page" is probably the same as "H.P.," who signed the wood engraving. He has been plausibly identified as Harlan Page, who was born in Coventry in 1791 and was active as an illustrator and wood engraver beginning in the 1810s.

Date Note: It has been suggested that the "S. Kellogg" commemorated by this print may be Susan Kellogg, a daughter of Daniel Kellogg and Susan Griggs Kellogg, who was born and died in 1815.
