Representative James T. Glynn
Of Connecticut, author Of the re-
port stated that for SO years the
isolated part Of the cemetery, where
many worthless sleep, has been per-
mitted to decay. The greater part
OF the graveyard, the repo:t states,
is under direction and care of an
Episcopal parish, but the-o old section
has been left untended for half a
century.
Among those buried in this part
of the cemetery are George Clinton,
early Vice President Of the United
states. and friend of George Wash
ington: Tobias Lear, George Wash
ington's private secretary; Gen.
James Jackson, William Pendelton
Barbour, William Writ, and Abel
p Upshur, all closely connected
