In memory of William, Esther & Anne du Bois
The text is inscribed into the main body of the fountain but can really only be read with the fingers.
As is common nowadays, the fountain is dry.
N19, Waterlow Park
This section lists the subjects commemorated on the memorial on this page:
du Bois fountain
The lettering is incised and painted black - very effective.
There is another fountain in a similar style in St Pancras: Thornton's Fountain, erected in 1877.

{Carved in the marble surface at the back:} Erected to the memory of H. Hayhill by his friends in HM Exchequer and Audit Dept. 1882.
Nice flowers in the upper level. Surely not even a dog would want to drink from the lower level?
