Thanks to Anna Fairley Nielsson for evidence about '... the triple foundation of Faith, Hope and Charity'. But now we now need something to show that Victorians actually interpreted cemetery monuments in this way. Any visitor accounts? Mason's catalogues? Pics?

Many cemetery interpreters say that the three steps at the base of a cross represent the virtues of Faith, Hope, and Charity.
But how do we know this? Where is this written in nineteenth-century sources? It seems a little abstract.
