DIRECTORY. 119 November 27, 1846. Adjacent stands the large Gothic chapel tomb of Wm. S. Brown. The material is sandstone and the carved ornaments are elaborately wrought. The grave of Ann Maria Marsh is nearly opposite. tall marble on the left tells A us that Wm. Weils was born in Germany and died in New-Orleans, at the age of 27. C. F. Hoyer, a German also, lies just beyond. The crown of Holly Hill is enclosed in one large lot, with tall iron posts, connected by chains. It is the ground of A. A. Low. In its centre stands a large marble urn-capped obelisk. We give the whole inscription as a model of beauty and propriety. "Erected by the family of Seth Low: In memory of the loved ones buried here, whose names are written in the hearts of the survivors." Ann B. Williams and Phebe M. Ryerson's memo rials are placed opposite. The monument of James Donaldson and of Thaddeus Phelps are on Mulberry Hill, at at a short distance. Of these, Donaldson's is somewhat peculiar. From an eight-sided pedestal, resting upon a quadrangular base, the upper corners of which are chamfered, rises an eight-sided, truncated pyramid. There is an urn on the summit, from which proceed two dry, twisted stems, on which an acorn is placed. These may be supposed to have some symbolic meaning. The lower part of the shaft is swathed with a sort of band, partly octangular, partly square. This is wrought into scrolls, and Moorish arches, with pendants. Upon the western side, the name of James Donaldson is inscribed. But what is that which rises before us, so solemn and so stern? A sepulchre above ground-a granite mansion for the dead! The style of this spacious building is, unequivocally, Thebaic. An iron fence, consisting of a single cylindrical rail, studded with spikes, surrounds the large enclosure, and is in keeping with the structure. The proprietors of this costly edifice intend, as we are informed, to cover it, in time, with DIRECTORY. a shroud of verdure. It will be a great improvement. Graven on the stone, are are the names of Peter and P. A. Schermerhorn. Here is Leafy Path. Let us enjoy the winding and shady way. Bid the driver proceed into Pine Avenue, and from that, take the first left into Central Avenue. Memorials of John Clem and of Thos. Bellman, are seen on the right, and of Sarah Jamison and Chas. J. That tall obelisk beyond Pine Avenue, is Malvina Harriot's, and near it are Alfred and Chas. Wiley. Deborah W. McCluney, Rosa Lee, and Stephen Fitch are near, and are passed upon the right. large brown stone monument before us is as yet unlettered. It is a good combination of dignity and beauty. The lot belongs to T. and H. Messenger and Innes C. Adams. Radford on the left. In the lot opposite may be seen chef-d'œuvre.
