An immediate reference of the planto the same quiet resting-place might possibly have provedto be the wiser course. Certainly if a tithe of the magnitudeand difficulty of the work had been realized, it would neverhave been undertaken. And yet a task that ought to havebeen completed before so many of our elder citizens hadpassed away, should be undertaken. Kinderhook, onehistoryofoldkind01coll
