When the graves in Rockville cemetery were being decorated last memorial day the attention of the Grand Army post was called to the sadly neglected condition of the plot set apart as a mariners' burial plot. This plot was purchased In ers' burial plot. This plot was purchased in 1S37 by Peter Hewlett East Rockaway, from Mordecai Smith, the owner of the ceni MARINERS' PLOT.

etery, and was set apart as a mariners' burial plot for the interment of sailors and others whose bodies wero found on the beaches or in the bay. It is now used as a sort at Potter's field, aud no pretense is made of keeping It in order. It Is no; even inclosed with a fence. At one end of the plot stands the monument erected to the memory of the emigrants who were wrecked on the Bristol and Mexico just before the purchase of the plot. A number of prominent masons have taken the matter up and an effort will be made to have Morton lodge.

F. and A. of Hempstead lead in a movement to have the plot suitably inclosed and looked after. It is said that several of the officers of the Ships were buried with masonic honors, and that the monument was largely the result of the labors of the members of Morton lodge. benjamin claee: tuthill.

What a Descendant of One of the First Settlers Has Done for East Marion. One of East Marlon's most public spirited and enterprising citizens is Benjamin Clark Tuthill, and largely through his efforts the name of his native village was changed from Rocky Point to East Marion, a church established and a park formed on the shores of Marion lake. Mr. Tuthill traces his ancestry through eight generations back to John Tuthill, one of the first settlers on Long Island. This ancestor was one of the first colonists to land at Southold in the middle of the Seventeenth century.

Three generations later, Samuel Tuthill. who is also in the line of ancestry, was born at Orient and lived to be very old. He was prominent in public affairs and a member of the militia. His Bon, James G. Tuthill, was the father of Benjamin, who was born at East Marion June 2, 1S27.

When very oung he went on tho water as cook in his father's vessel. He early united with the Baptist church at Greenport, there being no BENJAMIN" CL.ASK church at East Marlon. At that time a number of residents in East Marion were members of the church" at Greenport. They were obliged to drive a distance of three miles to attend services, while many being unable to drive often walked the distance. As their numbers Increased they determined to try to organize a church and build an edifice at Ea.st Marion.

Mr. Tuthill was one of the foremost promoters cf this object. The building was finished and the church organized in 1S47, and the old building remains nearly the same at the present day, with the exception of an addition which has been built on the west side. This was constructed as a result cf the efforts cf Mr. Tuthill.

He has always taken a deep interest In singing at church services, he himself being a good bass singer. A few years ago the choir was broken up by the death of the chorister, Mr. George Rackett. Through the efforts of Mr. Tuthill the choir was again organized, and he was elected the chorister, which position he still holds.

At 21 years of age Mr. Tuthill entered the store of his uncle, Mr. James Clark, as a clerk. He proved to be faithful and honest. EAST MARION" BAPTIST CHfECH.

and after his marriage in 1S51 to Miss Rebecca M. Baker, he purchased tho entire store and contents of his uncle and began business for himself. Beside this, for twenty years he has been East Marlon's postmaster. Near Marion lake Mr. Tuthill has taken great pride in making a park which is an ornament to the village.

The shrubberv undergrowth has been cleared away, seats built around the trees and a small jck with a summer house built on the lake. The park Is free to tho people and great crowds resort to this cool and shady retreat on hot summer days. At this place Mr. Tuthil! invites the Baptist choir each year to the annual picnic. About ten years ago Mr.

Tuthill released a few small carp in the lake. Shioc then the fish have grown enormously both in size and numbers. These fish have frequently been caught, some of which weigh eight "or ten pounds and often they are seen in numbers splashing the waters at a livi iy rate. Yi'jrs ago the lake was used for baptismal purposes and tor this reason Mr. Tv.t.hill has named tho place Baptist park.
