"On arrival we began to look around to
find what had caused the complimentary
remarks on the improved condition OF the
cemetary, which met our ears. Our steps

found ourselves shortly beneath
the lately erected monument to the mem

that faithful husband and respected citizen
whose name that estimable lady bore.
Close by We found Mr.. L. Il. Underhill. of
Underhill & Co., Austin, Texas, and his
well known San Antonio representative,
Captain Clum Drew, the latter giving direc.

statue OF Memory looking down upon
the grave The ground, surrounded by a
beautifully wrought marble curb, is entered
from the east. and passing around the mon

the side fronting west, while beneath are
engraven upon the pure marble in indelli-
ole characters some tender lines. In front
of the inscription side of the monument is
the grave, which is adorned by q beautiful
Italian marble grave cover, seven feet, two
inches in length, by two feet, eleven inches
in width, resting on solid ground at the
head, foot and sides. On the head of the
grave cover is found the inscription, "Mol.

shaped that it will continually wash itself
while inside the handsome marble rail is a
stand for flower vase, and at the foot,
wrought from the marble, is handsome
receptacle for the same purpose. This
grave cover is one of the handsomest and
most lasting pieces of marble work ever put
up in the south. Beside it, ground has been
reserved for the last resting place of Mr..
