Charlotte by Steve Marshall an old
lake captain. away back In the '3Os,
after the body Of the Inflated jumper
had been taken from the Genesee river
and buried in the village cemetery

This board stood at the head OF
Patch's grave until the semt-centenniaI
celebration in Rochester. y. Y. Then

roughly hewn slab was exhibited. Aft

1t was either lost or seized upon by
some relic hunter who cherished Il in
secret.
Since NarshalTs hand raised that
slab no one has ever taken the trouble
TO mark the grave In any way. says
the Rochester Post Express. Old resi-
dents Of Charlotte knew Of the loca-
ton by two old stumps. but within
the last two years these have rotted
away. The grave Is now unmarked.
Wild blackberry bushes are matted
over the spot.
The fame Of Sam Patch. such as It
was, has probably penetrated farther
than that Of any other person who
ever made Rochester his abiding place.
The exploits OF Sam were seized upon
and embodied I'm book Of nursery
rhymes, which will be remembered by
many, although long out Of print The
rhyme was mere doggerel. Many will
remember Sans reputed first jump, as
described In the book. II was from
the chicken house roof at his home,
and Sam landed plump on the back
OF goose. The mother OF Sam was
said to have been greatly grieved over
the damage to the goose, but joyful
over the escape Of her son. Here are
