GEN. SUFFERS RESTING PLACE.
Famous Old Pioneer of California Gold
Finds Buried in Pennsylvania.

Few persens know that the last rest
ing place of Gen. John \. Suffer- is in
the ouaint Moravian Cemetery at Lititz,
Lancaster county. Pa. Fewer, perhaps,
know the curious combination of cir
cumstances which led him to make his
home in the quiet Pennsylvania town
where he spent his last days.
After his misfortunes in California
General Sutter, on whose ranch gold was
grst discovered. came East and made
opnlication to Congress for a claim to
the gold discovered on his property,
which had been quickly grabbed up by
squatters.
His reasons for selecting Lititz as his
home were because of the educational
advantages offered by Linden Hall Sem
mary. where he educated his two grand
daughters besides, the Lititz springs
were recommended to him as a panacea
for rheumatism, with which he was at
times a great sufferer; so that. after
spending a summer there, he decided to
adopt il as his home. The peaceful life
OF a pastoral community appealed
strongly to the rugged California pio-
neer. buffeted ty misfortune and the ma
tion's ingratitude.
The general was originally Luther
an, and in his later years was not con-
nected with any church; but his kindly
ways and oper-hearted hospitality en-
Geared him to his Moravian neighbors,
W no regarded him as one of their fore
most citizens.
They were greatly shocked when news
reached them from Washington of the
generals death, and all agreed that he
Gied of a broken heart. This sad event
took place in 1850 (June), just after
Congress had adjourned without grant
ing his petition. The funeral was the
most pretentious ever held in Lititz.
Among the friends of the general who
were present on the occasion were Gen
eral Fremont. Gen. H. T. Gibson, who
spoke feelingly and most forcefully
about Suffers services rendered TO his
country. his disasters, and the ingrati-
tude of Congress in turning deaf ear to
his claims.
The general admired the quaint Gus
tom of the Moravians in the burial of
their dead-the bodies of rich and poor
placed side by side, and only simple
gravestone laid fiat on top of the low
mound. thus verifying the old adage,
Death levels all, both great and
small" His sympathetic neighbors, in
whose hearts he had endeared himself.
made an exception in his case. and
buried him in their cemetery, which is
located on the rising ground south OF
the church.
The Sutter vault stands apart from
the other graves, and consists of sim
pie slab resting on a granite coping. The
slab, besides containing the Sutter coat
of-arms and eagle and shield, has the
following inscription on it:
