| 8 | WEST BRIDGEWATER, |
[Transcribed by Dale H. Cook]
ing grave-stones, we have divided the ground in to six sections, numbered A to E, each section, except A and F, being 64 feet wide. The line between section A and B begins 42 feet southerly from the north-west corner of the grave-yard, and runs nearly an east course to the northeast corner ot the yard. As seen upon the plan, figures represent grave-stones, and all graves head west and foot east.
We begin at the west end of Section A, and go easterly, and locate and number each head-stone, the first stone 1, the next 2, the next 3, and so on until we locate and number all stones in that section, which amount to thirty-three stones. We then go into Section B, at the easterly end, and go westerly locating each stone, and numbering the first stone 34, next 35, and so on, until we get to the west end of section B, the last number in that section being 132. We then go into the west end of Section C, and locate and number the first stone 133, and go easterly, numbering all stones until we get to the easterly end of Section C, number 189, and so through all the sections, numbering all stones, and finding, in the whole, 304 stones, counting each monument for Edson, Keith, Angier and Reed as one stone, and excluding the four tombs.
