Yesterday Mr.. Brown, Sexton of Ever
green Cemetery, called upon Mrs. Anders
and informed her that upon digging open
the grave of Mrs. Henry Harvey, formerly
Miss Nettie Anders, well-known school
teacher, he found that her coffin had been
broken open and the remains stolen. The
silver plate on the coffin had also been
taken, and a quantity of jewelry that had
been buried with her. 1t is evident that
the body had been taken within few days
after its burial. The family are grief
stricken at the terrible information, and
have no clew to the foul despoilers of their
kinswoman's grave. The affair has caused
considerable excitement in Newport.
The remains were inferred in December,
1876 and every week since that time Mrs.
Taylor, sister OF the deceased, accompanied
by her mother, visited the cemetery and
placed tributes of memory over the grave.
In December OF the same year an attempt
was made to remove the remains of Mr..
Baker, but the sexton drove off the would
be robbers with a shotgun. One of the
parties was captured and indicted by the
Grand Jury, but was dismissed by the
Court, there being no law to hold him.
He remarked at the time that four other
graves had been robbed the night previous,
and it is supposed that Mrs. Harvey was
one oi l.e'n'
