is neither grave stones nor monument
within the Enclosure.
The cemetery association was lncor-
pOrated In 1881, though the cemetery
itself is a quarter OF a century older
and was originally part of a farm
owned by Perkins Nichols, who set
aside this old plot Of land as a family
burial place. When the corporation
was formed the plot was laid out in
series Of catacombs, constructed OF
solid marble, ~ or is feet under
ground and divided into 1877 vaults.
With the city's growth and develop
ment the Nichols farm was blotted
out. Green fields were turned into
city blocks, and the burial ground be-
came completely surrounded by tene-
ments and warehouses, whose many
windows, like curious eyes, seemed 70
look down wonderingly into the old
fashioned, secluded place. As time
passed the cemetery, from various
causes, fell into semi-ruin, the stone
walls crumbled in many places and a
tangle Of bushes and briars hid path
and grass plot from view and made a
melancholy wilderness Of this once
cherished garden Of the dead.
A few years ago the question was
agitated as to whether 1t would not be
well to remove the bodies, sell the
land and wind up the corporation. A
meeting of all those representing orr
ginal vault owners ESQ far as. their
names and addresses could be OBJ
tained) was called and the matter de-
bated. 1t became apparent at once
that the majority Of those present
were opposed to the abandonment OF
the cemetery.
Quaint and attractive as 1t now is,
IL is destined to become a spot OF
great beauty and dignity II those per
sonally interested contribute sufh-
ciently to carry out the scheme 80
artistically planned by Frederick Won
Hoffman, landscape architect, who is
to direct the work.
One of the curious features of the
cemetery as IL is now is the ancient
stone dead house, that stands in one
corner Of the Enclosure. II resembles
prison cell Of an ancient type rather
than a place for the dead TO repose
In temporarily. With It's unshuttered,

harmonic with modern conceptions
Of health beauty and general fitness
Is the plan OF certain members of the
New York Marble Cemetery corpora
ton, the association which owns the
old burying ground over on Second
avenue. At no inconslderable cost
they propose to transform the ceme-
terry into what will resemble far more
a beautiful garden than a place of the
dead, scheme that is of interest not
only to those who have personal asso-
Citations with the cemetery, but to the
general public, to whom restful and
verdant spaces In the midst of the toll
and traffic OF the city are OF infinite
value. The cemetery, which at pres
ent presents an oA-fashioned aspect
of quaintness and order. is an espe-
cially interesting bit of ancient New
York, preserved amid the downfall and
destruction OF morW-conspicuous relica
of the city's youth. For within it rest
the remains of numbers prominently
connected with her development So
cially and commercially.
The plot lies In the middle OF the
block formed by the intersection OF
Second and Third streets with Second
avenue and the Bowery, and is en-
tered by an iron gateway which,
breaking the monotonous block-front
of stores and tenements on Second
avenue. opens upon q passage, which
in turn leads to the gateway in the
eastern wall Of the cemetery itself.
Once inside the latter entrance, the
visitor is astonished to find an open
space OF 1877 feet by IS feet in extent,
surrounded by high walls and giving
little evidence of the purpose for
which 1t is used. A grass plot inter
sected by three straight paths runs the
full length of the inclosure. Upon the
western wall is a large tablet on
which are engraved the names Of
vault owners, while the eastern wall
bears the name OF the cemetery.
Along the side walls smaller tablets

site their respective vaults. But there

The altitude of the region in which
