Complete 35/35 "They're as safe as Dan'l Malcolm." The following epitaph is still to be read on a tall grave-stone standing as yet undisturbed among the transplanted monuments of the dead in Copp's Hill Burial-Ground, one of the three city cemeteries which have been desecrated and ruined within my own remembrance:-- "Here lies buried in a Stone Grave 10 feet deep, Cap' DANIEL MALCOLM Merch' Who departed this Life October 23d, 1769, Aged 44 years, a true son of Liberty, a Friend to the Publick, an Enemy to oppression, and one of the foremost in opposing the Revenue Acts on America." Page 62. This broad-browed youth. The stripling smooth of face and slight. |
