The last words of Nurse Cavell'. Portrait of Edith Cavell, her mother and sister. Edith Louisa Cavell ( 4 December 1865 – 12 October 1915) was a British nurse and patriot.

She was subsequently court-martialled, found guilty of treason and sentenced to death. Despite international pressure for mercy, she was shot by a German firing squad. Daily Sketch. London, 1915.
