The petrided body Of a woman was
exhumed FRIDAY at St. Philomena' s
Cemetery, Pi-tsburg. Itrequired four
men to lift the body, which had COM
pletely turned to stone. The growth
of the hair excited wonder among the
onlookers. During the ten or fifteen
years the body had been in the ground,
according to the calculations made,
the hair had grown from six to ten
inches. 1t was Of a dark brown color
and still very beautiful. The body
was in excellent condition, everything
being preserved as in life, even to the
toe and finger nails. The head was
natural as would be the case a few
hours after death.
