pitaph for the Wet-nurse Jen

This inscription was composed and handwritten by Su Tung-p'o. Wet-nurse Jen, the tomb occupant, followed her mistress into the Su family, where she got married and nursed Tung-p'o and his sister. She also attended to Tung-p'o's three sons and one grandson. This inscription enables historians to shift their focus from great men to ordinary people.
