DISSERTATION OF II GRAVE OF BOIL
MEYER. .os1
We are both amazed and grieved to
learn that the grave of the lameuted Boil
meyer, in W oodland Cemetery, has been
desc crated and outraged by the removal
of the marble slab which marked the
resting. place of the honored dead. BY
whom the outrage was perpetrated, we
are not definitely advised. We only state,
however, as q matter Of public informa,
ton, that Mrs. Bollmeyer, the widow Of
the deceased, and by whom the stone had
been placed at the grave of her departed
husband, was officially notified, a few
days ago, by the officers of the Cemetery
Association, that the tombstone must be
removed She permdntorily declined to
comply with this strange and unnatural
demand, and SO ihformed'tifem. Friends
Of hers, who visited the Cemetery a day
or two since, observed that the stone had
been carefully removed, but by whom, Or
where it was taken, still. remains a myS-.

The marble slab thus clandestinely re-
moved, contained the following inscrip;

That suoh a deed should transpire in a
