In the published work entitled The Mayor of Casterbridge written by Thomas Hardy, the main character in the story sells his wife and only child in a drunken rage. Once sober, he realizes what he has done, he gives up liquor and decides to do something useful with his life.
Thomas Hardy's poem 'The Going' expresses the sorrow and regret Hardy feels following the death of his wife Emma, in September 1912. Hardy speaks of a faded happiness in between them and the days long dead when they were youthful. He asks 'Why did you give no hint that night' as a gentle accusation, as if blameful of his late wife to think that he would not care of her illness while slightly blaming himself that he had not better expressed his unconditional love for her, in her death more apparent than ever.
Thomas Hardy's funeral was on 16 January at Westminster Abbey in London. Hardy had wished for his body to be interred at Stinsford in the same grave as his first wife, Emma. However, his executor, Sir Sydney Carlyle Cockerell, insisted that he be placed in the abbey's Poets' Corner. A compromise was reached whereby his heart was buried at Stinsford with Emma, and his ashes in Poets' Corner.
