The last vigil for the Poe Taster...

Actually, it turns out that this situation has been somewhat exaggerated.  It turns out that the Poe Taster, both the original and the replacement, were known to the curator.  He, in turn, could then declare whether the Taster had arrived, or if it were one of many 'imitators', (I'm not quite sure what the word means when we're just talking about leaving an offering at a grave - what's the difference between an 'original' and someone else, really?).  At any rate, it's a good story, and adds a little romance to Poe's rep.  And it seems to be at an end.  Nevermore....
