" It is very likel that the marker will be a huge granite boulder, with a suitable inscription cut in its face. It was at first intended to have a bronze tablet bearing an in- scription placed upon a boulder, but owing to the fact that several of the bronze tablets have been recentiy stolen rom graves in other places it was thought better to scription cut in the stone itself. The boulder will be placed near the head of the grave, with the inscrip- tion toward the north, facing the en- trance to the cemetery. None of the stone or markers now about the grave will be moved. When the movement on the part of the New York people was first made l residents of Riverside that an effort would be made to have the remains of the mayor removed to New York, and any such plan would have been stren- uously opposed.
