which stands over John Sherman's

cemetery above Mansfield. Ii consists
OF block of gray granite, about eight
rect hIgh and u feet long standing on
granite pedestal, with the words
John sherman upon its face The
STONE stands In the center Of the Sher-
man lot, a little beyond where he and

lS23-l9OU. The two were married m
1913, when Sherman was still a young
ana unknown lawyer and they lived
together most happily for more than 50
years their deaths being but a few
months apart One OF the yagaries Of
Senator Shermln's mind during his last
days was a worry about his wlfe's
grave and his death was probably ac-
CELEBRATED by his desire TO so to her.
The two now rest side by side. With the
green leaves Of a magnificent beech tree
whispering their requiem.
