"Mr. Harris had also given orders
that a guard should be placed at his
grave for three days and nights
that pump be placed in his grave
with a bell attached and a strong
rope drawn through the pipe anC
placed in his hands so that if ht
should show signs Of life he coulc

could notify the public and hav,

latter request was not complied
