Denver Church in Norfolk, UK has a plaque on the wall. It reads, 'Sacred to the memory of HORACE MANN. A mate of His Majesty's ship, Pique. Who, in a gallant attempt to save the life of a perishing shipmate, was drowned in Diamond Harbour, Quebec, on the night of the 24th of August 1853. This table is erected by the Captain and Officers of His Majesty's ship, Pique. As a memorial of their esteem for his many virtues, their admiration of his heroic self-devotedness, and of their deep and lasting regret for his untimely fate. "The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance"' 86.24.52.90 (talk) 20:34, 10 January 2013 (UTC)JAF[reply]

Sorry typo 'This table is erected ...' should read 'This tablet is erected ...' 86.24.52.90 (talk) 20:59, 10 January 2013 (UTC)JAF[reply]
