buried in Mount Olivet Cemetery, have

the Russian Orthodox Church OF st.
Nicholas, the Rev. Benedict Turkevitch'
its pastor. and the owners OF the cere-
terry.
Alphonse Charantanovitch, a mem
Der of the congregation, says IN his
complaint that in 1909 he bought a plot
in the cemetery in which to bury the
body of his little daughter, who died
in February of that year. Subsequent
y the body was removed from this plot
and buried in another. This was at
the direction of Father Turkevitch, he

my little child. The dissertation of her
grave and, above all, the loss of her
body, have cost me loss of sleep and
much suffering. My affections have
suffered a loss for which adequate
atonement could not be made to me-"
Charantanovitch has repeatedly de-
manded, he says, that the body sub
stituted for that of his child be re-
moved from his plot and her body re-
turned. Despite this, he has been un-
able TO learn, he declares. where the
little ones body is buried.

Confusion in Plots Blamed.

The suit was characterized as "a mis-
take" last night by Edwin p. Kilroe,
attorney for the church. who said the
moving of the body was the result OF
confusion of plot numbers. He said
Charantanovitch labored under the mis-
taken impression that he was the own
er of Plot %. where the child was
buried originally, when he had pur-
chased Plot ~. The body was re-
moved when it was discovered it had
been buried in the wrong plot and
placed in the right one.
