Reuben Bryant had ‘been a soldier in the re olutionary war and had been serious- ly wounded. He lived in a little cab- in, which has been used for years to shelter cattle, and Willilam Hopkins, who lived near, kept a neighborly watch over him. Mr. Bryant had a pension. The children liked to Old Graveyards. Near this little hut on the old Hop- kins farm is the family lot of the Hopkinses, and near thatan old indian burying ground of the Sagamore tribe. On the Locke road is the Locke family lot, and just east of the John H. Gallup farm is the Briggs lot. A little way from the Allen Davis farm are two old cemeteries, and on the old Captain Shepard farm are two—the Park family yard and the old time neizhborhood ~cemetery — and just over the line, on the old Starkweather farm, is the old time family lot of the Starkweathers and Spaldings. It is believed that there are revolutionary soldiers in all of these yards. The late Burton Keigwin had a complete list of men from Plainfield who fought in the revolution. Nathaniel Sabin has a handsome stome in the Shepard lot, set a few years ago by his grandson, the late George Spalding of Woodstock. An- other grandson, William Tift of Jew- ett City, furnished flags some ten vears ago for all of the soldiers’ graves that could be found in these old vards, and Mrs. Willlam Johnson and Mrs, Ruth Barber Devolve attend- ed to the decoration.
