Charlotte Canda : ウィキペディア英語版 | Charlotte Canda
Charlotte Canda (February 3, 1828 – February 3, 1845), sometimes referred to simply as "Miss Canda",〔〔 was a young debutante who died in a horse carriage accident on the way home from her seventeenth birthday party in New York City. She is memorialized by a Victorian mausoleum in Green-Wood Cemetery, Brooklyn by Robert Launitz and John Frazee. The ornately and expensively decorated monument attracted thousands of visitors to Green-Wood Cemetery in the late 19th century.〔 ==Background== Charlotte's father, Charles Canda, was an officer in Napoleon's army and the headmaster of a school on Lafayette Place in Manhattan. He and his wife, Adele Canda, adopted Charlotte when she was an infant.〔 Charles Canda was dropping one of Charlotte's friends off at a home on Waverly Place in Manhattan when the horses became spooked, perhaps because of a storm, and bolted. Charlotte fell out of the moving carriage at Broadway and Waverly Place, hitting her head on the pavement. She died in her father's arms.〔
