BUETON, BOOK K^J) JOB PRINTER, No. 85 WARREN STREET. Hz 2 ^^rcfacc. In early days every church in New York had a graveyard connect- ed with the church building. In 1822 there were 23 graveyards below the City Hall, but nearly all have been broken up and covered with buildings. In 1813 all burials were prohibited below Canal Street. In 1851 a city ordinance prohibited any burials south of 86th Street, except in pri- vate vaults or cemeteries, and at the present time no interments are allow- on Manhattan Island. The Cemeteries around New York are so numerous, so beautiful and so dispersed, that an accurate guide to them has become a necessity. This book has been prepared to inform the resident and the stranger of the location, means of access and characteristics of the different Burial- places of the Metropolis. New York, July, 1881. Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1881, by S. C. Judson, in the office of the Librarian o( Congress at Washington. \,;*, \.. Office 266 Mulberry St. This old and well improved Cemetery is located in Newtown, Queens Count}'-, Long Island, about two miles from East 10th Street Ferrj, and is very convenient to New York. It is the piincipal Roman Catholic burying ground of New York and its suburbs, and about 400,000 bodies have been in- terred therein since it was opened. The grounds cover an area of something over 100 acres, and are divided into 10 sections and these sub-divided by avenues and roads for ready access. The Cemetery was laid out in August, 1848, and is on and around the crest of a hill, the naturallocation being such as to forever prevent its des- ecration. The appearance of Calvary is commanding and tasteful; there is a small wilderness of monuments, many of them being very choice and ex- pensive works of art. A soldiers monument erected by the city of New York in 1866 is a conspicuous feature. It is of granite, 45 feet high and sur- mounted by a bronze, life-size figure of ^'Patriotism.'' At the corners are four bronze figures, representing different branches of the service. The ground, comprising four full lots, was generously donated by the management of Calvary at the beginning of the Rebellion, that all Catholic soldiers who fell in that strife and whose remains were not otherwise provided for, might find rest. The Cemetery is laid out with uniformity and good judgment, and the excellent manner in Avhich it is kept is noticeable. Within the Cem- etery which is enclosed by an ornamental stone and iron fence, is a chapel, a chaplain's house and a superintendent's office. There are three imposing entrances. The Cemetery is owned by the Trustees of St. Patrick's (Cath- olic) Cathedral of New York. Hugh Moore is Superintendent. TO GO TO CALVARY. From Roosevelt, Grand and Houston street Ferries, take Grand Street car at Brooklyn terminus — fare five cents. Funei-als take 10th and 23d street Ferries and reach it via. Greenpoint Avenue. Ferries from James slip, 7lh and 34th streets connect with street cars at Hunters Point — tare seven cents ; funerals also go by either of the last named ferries. Calvary is well worth a visit. The Trustees of Calvary have lately purchased and laid out a new ceme- tery containing about 80 acres, near to but entirely separated from the old one. J^ Cemeteries of JYew Yorh.

It occupies about 20 acres of ground on the easterly side of the Island; the soil is of a sandy nature, lying low and level ; trees and shrubs are planted and good roads surround it. A receiving vault is on the grounds. The Cemetery was opened April 20, 1869, and up to June 30, 1881- 3.5,073 bodies have been interred. Interments are made in conformity with a resolution of the Common Council dated June 10, 1874. Bodies are interred in Separate graves by special permission of the Commissioners. Disinterments are made for interment in private Cemeteries, by relatives of deceased persons, on Board of Health orders, end(n'sed by the Department of Public Charities and Correction. A separate plot for soldiers is also in the grounds, each body being- interred in a separate grave, marked by a neat stone, givmg the name and regiment in which the deceased served, as also age and date of death. A monument has been erected on the soldiers' plot by Eeno Post 44, G. A. R., who visit the Cemetery on "Decoration Day" of each year.

Of the many burial places in the neighborhood of New York, Cypress Hills Cemetery is one of the most beautiful and attractive. It comprises nearly 400 acres, and is located on Long Island, partly in Kings and partly in Queens Counties. The Cenieteiy was dedicated November 21st. 1848, and by its charter is allowed to hold 500 acres of land. All of the Cemetery is laid out, and tive- eighths of ilie lots have been sold. Lots vary in price from |5 to !$300, and single interments may be obtained from $3 to $20, according to location and size of plot. Tlie grounds are irregular in shape, face the south, and the extreme length north and south is one mile. The main entrance is on the south side. There are two other entrances, one on the west and the other on the north side. Most funerals enter the west gate^ immediately within which is a tower whose bell is tolled as the procession passes. DISTANCE FEOM NEW YORK. Cypress Hills Cemetery is four and a half miles in a straight line from Fulton Fei-ry, but by the street car routes or roadways it is a ride of six miles from the East Kiver. Tne north gate is in a bee line directly east from Wall street. It is aboui a mile and three-eighths from the eastern boundary line of the city of Brooklyn, on the north side of the Brooklyn and Jamaica turnpike, and being l)ounded on the north by the Myi-tle Avenue Plank Koad, on the east by a high range of hills, on the south by the Brooklyn and Jamai ca turnpike, and on the west by the Williamsburg and Cypress Hills Macad- amized Road, it is geographically isolated and protected from all danger of invasion ov desecration for all time. HOW TO GO THERE. Take any »>f the following routes : South Ferry and Atlantic Avenue street cars to terminus : thence by steam cars to south entrance of Cemetery, fare 13 cents. Fulton Ferry, via. DeKalb, Myrtle or Fulton Avenue street cars to ter- minus; thence by steam cars to south entrance of Cemetery^ fare 8 cents. 6 Cemeteries of Jfew TorJc. Koosevelt or Grand street ferries to foot of Broadway, Williamsburg, thence by Broadway cars to terminus and steam cars to main entrance, fare 8 cents. The Bush wick Ave. and South 4th st. cars run from Fulton ferry to west entrance of Cemetery, fare 8 cents. The most common route of funerals from New York is over G-rand street ferry and along Broad waj^ to the west entrance. Labor, care and money have made Cypress Hills Cemetery a pictur- esque and lovely place well worth visiting. It is made yp hills and dales, many considerable lakes and small bodies of water are interspersed, and there is a great deal of forest and shrubbery. The grounds are intersect- ed hy paths and avenues that run in curved lines. From the observatory on Mount Victory a eonmianding sweep of view, of unsurpassed variety and interest, is to be had ; the Atlantic ocean stretches away to the south, and the highlands of Neversink, the hills and plains of New Jersey, the cities of Brooklyn and New York, the Hudson with the Palisades for a background; the East river, Williamsburg, the hills of Connecticut, the village of Jamaica, the forests and rich fields of Long Ishmd make up the magnificent circling i^rospect. The property has been excellently and wisely managed. The annual income of the society is about $26,000, which is all expended in the care and improvement of the grounds and for necessary expenses. Cypress Hills Cemetery is the people's graveyard. Over 110,000 interments have been made since it was thrown open, and this number does not include many thousand removals. Some fifty benvolent, social, ecclesiastical and humane societies own ground within its boundaries. Tlie Journalistic Fraternity, the Bank Clerk's Association, the Metropol- itan Police Board, many church societies of all denominations, and Ma- sonic and Odd Fellow organizations are among those who have acquired title to extensive plots of ground, and many of them have erected costly monuments. The XT. S. Government owns 200 lots, which are in charge of a resident keeper. Nearly 4,000 graves are in this soldiers' plot. Cypress Hills may be called a cemetery of cemeteries. Handsome vaults" are constantly being constructed, and many classic monuments are visible. OPFICEHS OP THE CEMETERY. EDMUND DRIGGS, Pres. FRED'K H. WAY, Treas. WILLIAM EDWARDS. Seoetary. JOHN T.

Ill natural beauty, elaborate and finished improvements and costly ornament- ation, it is the first Cemetery in the United States. Some of the monuments cost a fortune and strangers take great pleasure iu visiting it. The conformation of the ground is varied and has been made doubly at- tractive in all ways that the highest cultivated taste, and unlimited means could suggest and accomplish. Its numerous avenues and paths form delightful drives and walks where cliauging scenes of rare beauty are continually presented. At one moment you are in a dell beside still waters ; at the next looking from a hill top at the Imperial City, the Bay, and beyond that, over the distant Ocean. Green-wood Cemetery was incorporated April 18, 1838, but did not com- mence operations until four years later. The grounds comprise 450 acres of land, piu'chased from 60 different owners.

It comprises one hundred acres of land, located on a plain, gently sloping to the water. It is a charming and contemplative spot, far re- moved from distracting noises. Through the middle of the Cemetery runs Chapel Avenue, shaded on each side by rows of large elms and ma- ples. The Superintendent's office stands in the middle of the grounds. This Cemetery has been in use since 1849 and hence may be called one of the oldest burial places in the vicinity of the Metropolis. The reputation of New York Bay as a quiet, well guarded resting place is well known. About three years ago, some of the wealthiest and most honored residents of Jersey City, accepted positions as Trustees, and infused new life and enterprise into the affairs of the corporation. The place is now in a flourishing condition, and great interest is taken in its improvement. A xavy large number of lots are owned by corpora- tions, societies, lodges and charitable bodies.

This novel and beautiful "City of the Dead," is situated near Spar- kill, State of N"ew York, one hour's run by rail from Jersey City ; and is laid out with all the tasteful accompaniments and drives of a modern park. The natural and striking features of the place; its splendid forest verdure, cedars, pines, hemlocks, etc., and lovely glens and plateaus, are not excelled probably in exquisite beauty, by anything of the same gr like extent in the entire Union. Under a charter granted by the legislature of New York, thirty-eight years ago, it became a pretty rural Cemetery, appropriated until recently mainly to the wants of the rural population adjoining, along with those of the surrounding villages. Only a small space was thus used ; but of late, several wealthy and appreciative gentlemen, struck with the rare loveli- ness of the place, have taken it in hand for lots for themselves and fami- lies, and by the employment of a capable landscape gardener and engineer and a large force of laborers, have made this mountain-side retreat, a place of so many charms, that few if any parks in the whole land can even now be found as its equal. But to set forth its most striking and attractive characteristics, we propose to briefly summarise these, so that they may be comprehended almost at a glance by the community at large^ Ceineteries of Jfew York. 31 First. — The situation for natural beauty is a very remarkable one ; having the Palisades of the Hudson, and the broad waters of the Tappan Zee on one side, and the charming valley of the Sparkill on the other. Second. — It is a mountain slope, facing to the south and divided into four plateaus, from all of which are presented landscape views so extended and remarkable for their beauty and historical interest, as once seen? never to be forgotten. Third. — This Park Cemetery is so situated, topographically, as to insure absolute immunity from all future disturbance of the remains of those en- trusted to its keeping ; since no dread need ever be entertained of its be- ing invaded for any purpose whatever, by the restless and reckless march of modern progress. Fourth. — By calling to aid modem and growing usage, and the advanta- ges of the railroad, Kockland Cemetery is reached with greater expedition and less inconvenience, than any other large Cemeterj^ adjoining the Great City. Fifth. — In an economical point of view, particularly, it is desirable, be- cause the most beautiful and choice resting places for the dead, can now be had in this rare locality, for from one-third to one-tenth of those pro- curable in some of our large cemeteries. Sixth. — The well known high character of the gentlemen who have un- dertaken the objects above set forth, affords the surest possible guaranty, that nothing whatever will be wanting in going forward and completing the magnificent programme determined upon by them, and which prom- ises to make this one of the most beautiful and convenient park Cemeter- ies known. S^ Cemeteries of J\(eiv Yorh. Seventh. — Lots thus held are inalienable, and the only real estate invest- ments that cannot be interfered with from any cause ; they are not tax- able, and their preservation and beauty for all time to come, will be as- sured by permanent funds provided for that purpose. DIRECTORY AND SUGGESTIVE. Improved methods of conducting inexpensive funerals suggest: — that the religious services for the dead of the Great City can be conduct- ed at the home of the deceased ; visitors arriving there by whatever pub- lic or private conveyance — horse car or carriage— maj^ be most conven- ient; that these services ended, the clergyman can announce the fact, leaving the family — usually at such a time a grateful procedure — to themselves alone. Then an hour or so later the city undertaker can make his appearance with the hearse and one or two carriages, the little cor- tege can readily make its way through the crowded streets to the starting point by rail, when an hour's run carries them to Sparkill, to meet the Park undertaker with one or two carriages, when all proceed to the Cem- etery, a short distance froin the station, and quietly complete the inter- ment. In view of all this, who will not say that it is an improvement on former expensive and tedious ceremonials and usages, where the long and costly procession was compelled to contend for hours for a way through the crowded streets to convey the dead to their last home; who will not be ready to admit that the methods above suggested are much more in consonance with the feelings of the bereaved, whose most press- ing requirements at such a time miist be the opportunity to indulge their sorrow and suffering, untroubled by the obtrusion of others not in sympathy. with them.
