Where his parents are buried in the
north part Of Newport. 1t is not

only two by four feet. On this what
some have called a fancy tablet of
golden Westerly granite four feet long,
about three feet high, sixteen inches
thick at the bottom, ten inches at the
top. The two sides are polished and
the ends cut vase shaped. This cut of
the ends, which is the original part of
IL, breaks up the SQuareneSs of most
monuments and gives a graceful pleas

carved 6l5 letters and figures, includ-
ing the names and year dates of five
generations of his fathers and six of
his mothers ancestors, back to 1910.
Mr.: Roy and other good cutters are
right here in Barton, equipped and
