making for the body of John Paul
Jones, the naval hero of the revolution
airy war, recently disclosed a lead cof-
I'm. The name plate on the coffin was
much corroded. but the inscription has
finally been deciphered, showing that
lit was the coffin of an Englishman
buried May 5, 1880, two years before the
death of Jones.
Consequently the coffin will not be
opened. The search continues. The
finding of this lead coffin has the ad-
vantage of establishing that those
buried in the Protestant cemetery
about tire time of Jones death lie in the
N'icinity of the present excavations.
