The image was found in an album of photographs taken by Ernest Howard Farmer. … The man Farmer photographed has also been identified as Lot Long (1823–93), who was a widower residing in a small cottage in Shaftesbury Road, Mere, when the image was taken.

    As someone who has owned this album since about 5 years after it came out, I don’t think I would have gotten any further than “That looks somewhat familiar.”

          Meh. It’s an outdated word anyway that, like some innocent things, gets perverted into something malicious by assholes.
