***I remember that when I was in high school
several boys had broken into the mausalium and broken into several caskets and
removed some of the remains. That is the main reason I believe that the bodies
were moved and reburied. I am not sure, but I know that the building came down
right after that.
On one Halloween night I remember being in the
cemetery and went inside. It was either that choice, or stand outside alone in
the dark,,,,,cluck cluck cluck....! When I went inside I remember feeling an
erie sort of coldness...I got out fast and never went back to see it
again.***
