that they could not wait till the high water reached

fiery autumn leaves upon her sunny head.
Where tongue of land ran out between
lakelike bay and a river that hurried down
to throw herself in its arms there lay the
new settlement. Facing seaward the five
newly built huts stood on the edge of
grove that crowned the river bluffs Be-

Susan Digs This aged woman was
mendicant, and Is remembered by some of
the old citizens. She went from door t.
door begging for food and finally. in the
hfties. she was taken sick In her shanty
near Buzzard's Point and died. When
found on a pile of dried marsh grass In
her dilapidated abode she had been dead
several days. Susan Digs favorite say
ing was: THE corporation owes me
Twin cause I'm too old to work an when
dies the corporation will owe me bury
in" True to this prophecy she was buried
at the expense of the city in potter's field.
The term ''potters field" as applied to a
burial place for unfortunates Is more an
Client than the Bible In old Jerusalem Il
was described as "a burial place for stran-
gers, on hill overlooking the valley of
Hinnom. There was at Jerusalem a
royal establishment of potters, according
to L Chronicles, iv:23. from whose employ
pent and from the fragments cast away in
the process potter's field perhaps received
It's name. Reference Is made to Isaiah,
XXN14. Also Matthew, NXvii:1
Nineteenth street southeast. the extreme
eastern thoroughfare of Washington, which
is distant less than pistol shot west OF
potters field. has been designated as
Calamity avenue. This street is flanlxed on
the south by the Congressional cemetery.
While on the commons a few yards west OF
it is the smallpox detention camp. Com
mencinS from its south end the following
institutions are located on the east side Of
the street: The -workhouse for males,
Washington Asylum Hospital, the aims
house and jail, with its ever-ready gallows.
Just east of 10Th street are the old and
new smallpox hospitals, potter's field, the
workhouse for females, the dead house,
potter's field and the old mems. home.
Calamity avenue seems to be fitting
name for such a direful locality.

Many of life's sad stories lie buried be-
meath the humble mounds of clay and
sand in potter's field. This burial place OF
the unclaimed dead of the District of CO.
lumbia is situated a short distance due
east of the jail and almshouse. on sloping
ground, which descends gradually to the
marshy banks Of the Eastern branch OF
the Potomac The Surroundings Of this
burial ground for unfortunates are In
keeping with the nature Of the place ITSELF
They are grewsome and suggestive. The
morning sun causes the shadows Of the
old pest house, a few yards away, to fall
aslant the. long lines OF mounds. while IN
the afternoon thesgraves are in the very
shadow of the grim old Jail and the aims
house.
The date when The meadows along the
Eastern branch were first used as a pot
ter's field is uncertain. Old inhabitants
remember that fifty years ago. when The
Evening Star came into existence, the
bodies Of paupers were, inferred there. At
that time the place was known as the
Corporation burying ground" and 1t was
far removed from the residence sections OF
the city, East Washington being but
sparsely settled In fact, a trip to potter's
field was regarded as a 5visit to the coun-
try, and many bl@ckhsrrying parties were
wont to visit the locality and pick berries
from the hedges along the roadway.
ACCORDING 10 SHlel SleIh 1lHudlI u luO
almshouse, the records show that potters
field was regularly laid off in 1875. This
section, which was directly In the rear OF
the almshouse, having become overcrowded
with bodies, the present plot was estab-
lished October 20, 1880, when the first body
was inferred there. AS illustrative of the
careless manner in which the bodies Of
unfortunates were buried during the old
corporation regime, workmen and prison.,
ers of the workhouse have frequently Of
late, while making improvements there
abouts, unearthed the bones Of paupers,
the bodies having either been buried in
very shallow graves the rains had
washed away the earth's surface almost
to the point Of exposing the ghastly rem
ne nts.
The new burying ground Is located on
high ground, but as this section is also
becoming overcrowded, the authorities will
soon have to select another location for
potters field. The dead house. which an
swers the purpose OF a receiving vault Is
situated near the workhouse for females.
The building was originally used a
fire engine house. This was before and
during the civil war, when the old brick
magazines close by were stored with gun
powder for the use of the army and navy.
In those days a fire engine was kept
constantly on duty in the present dead
house. The old magazines, which were
formerly stored with grim munitions of
war, have been converted into home for
aged and decrepit colored men, and now
afford shelter for a number of that rapidly
disappearing American type-the old plan
