England Expects Every Man Will Do His Duty
|
Remember whilst his mortal part has rest
Th' immortal lives in every Briton's breast Tho' short his Span of Life, recording fame Inscribes a deathless Volume to his Name |
Mourn not for me! 'tis vain, chase grief away
Compleat my work, and crown the glorious day! Behold, 'tis done his parting spirit flew And lightning rests, brave Collingwood with you |
The ever to be lamented LORD VISCOUNT NELSON
Born Sept 29 1758

Below, a smaller mug without enamels over the transfer. This mug and the one beneath it both have typical 'Newcastle' frogs.
James Warburton, Quay Side, Newcastle
This jug has a very similar transfer to the Newcastle items above, except that the printed mark reads 'James Warburton Quay Side'.
Attributed to Scott & Sons, Southwick, c1830
A number of the Warburton transfer plates made it to Southwick and were used by Moore's and Scott's in the 1830s. The horizontal strokes of lustre decoration are typical of Scott's. As is the decoration of the handle.
