Atkinson It was 8unday morning, a raw, dis agreeable day—the wind blew so hard that I thought it had mistaken Salem street for the Cliff House road, and oue or two full ash barrels for » an Francis co’s sand hills. I took my way down through the old North End, through fil'.hy streets and dirty alleys, by crying babies and hooting boys, till I came to Copp’s Hill burying ground, established in 1661. By special favor I was admit ted within the grim iron gates—the kindly courtesy of the superintendent makitig my hour with the dead a very entraining one. This cemetery is one of Boston's r lies—for it is the oldest, save one, (King’s Chapel) in the city. There are many curious stones and queer monuments to be seen in it, and not a few interesting little bits of gos-ip told concc’ning them. The superintendent has ad th“ir histories at his tongue’s end. How he ever found them out is a mys- very to me. For instance, how could he know that vhe woman who lies under tins stone, Mrs. Mary Baker, was Paul Revere’s sister, and that she was twice married, that her first husband’s name was Smith, and that be lies under that stone yonder, while her “dear second” reposes beside her—when the stones nor records show any such s.ory. And they all lived and died before 1800. The gi ourd contains the dust of 8,000 peop’e, or c d before part o“ was tdined into the site for a gasometer. Many i'lusvrio'JS peop’e are buried here, and so many iuteiesdng tales did the superintendent tell me that my bead failly swam. The giound was named for one William Copp. The tombstone of bis wife and many descendants still stand, but his has disappeared. The slab which covers her grave says that “Goodtuh Copp died in 1676.” I stumbled ovtr the first name, but the superintendent came to my relief by saying, “If Goo does not spell Jew, what does it spell I ’ Hence I infer that the worthy woman’s name was “Judith.” The oldest stone in the ground was dug up last Summer. This is its inscription:
