When visiting the sister isle of Tobago, one place you just have to visit is, the mystery tomb of Betty Stivens. Betty Stiven died in 1783 at 23 years old. Her tomb, located in Plymouth, bears an inscription that is baffling to all who read it and could be a good conversation starter. I am still yet to figure out what really happened to Betty Stiven in 1783. It reads, "She was a mother without knowing it, and a wife without letting her husband know it; except by her kind indulgences to him".
See how baffling it is. I encourage anyone to have a crack at it, better yet get some scholars to give some background on Betty Stiven, I would sure like to know what really happened. If you think you have figured it out, please feel free to leave a comment to elucidate me.
The mystery tombstone is still a mystery to this day; who knows maybe it will always be a mystery.
