"A Handsome Monument
"A beautiful gray granite family monument was placed upon Wright Vermilya's lot, in the new cemetery, last week, by Godfrey & Hodapp, of Seymour.
It rests upon a large square granite base, Is well proportioned, elegantly engraved, and 14 feet high.
"As yet, only one member of Mr. Vermilya's family, his little son Wright, has been summoned to the spirit world and we hope that many years may elapse before death again invades his happy household."
