Summary of arrangements for burial of Trelawny's ashes in the Non-Catholic Cemetery in Rome. He notes that until, 1880 he did not know the identity of the purchaser of the plot next to Shelley. In May of that year he received a letter from Trelawny with instructions about the future burial of his ashes. In October of 1880 an English woman, Miss Emma Taylor, arrived at the cemetery with a walnut box containing Trelawny's ashes. Arrangements were made to complete the necessary paperwork, and the payment of the tax for introducing a body onto Italian soil, and the ashes were interred within 3 weeks.
