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“

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:
