L. Ellsworth was buried in Pine Grove
cemetery and a rocking-horse placed
beside the grave. The lot is one of
the most conspicuous in the cemetery,
and is located near miniature lake
in which several white swans dis
ported. Soon after the interment
one of tho swans mounted the Els
worth lot, and has ever since kept a
constant watch over the grave Of the
Ichilds, scarcely leaving the mount
even to eat. Any one who attempts
a near approach cf the grave is greet
ed with the birds shriIl cries and pre-
parations for an attack, which is
made if the grave or roeking-hoSSe is
touched, ami the bird invariably
drives off strangers. The swans
mate endeavored for some time to in
duced her companion to the lake, but
without success, and eventually died
of grief. Hundreds of people have
visited tho cemetery to witness the
singular conduct of the self-stationed
sentinel.
