The album leaves a form for recording the burial

This page of the family’s mourning album shows the printed burial form above an engraving of the Cave of Machpelah. The volume was completed for Paul Reichenbach and kept by his family. The page shows how the book expected a burial to be recorded, but its blanks do not supply Paul’s grave details.
