The Depated

I found another "depated" stone. This one is in Harvard, MA.

I must say, the phonetic misspelling of "departed" is among my favorite New England graveyard Easter eggs. Finding a new one always makes my day.

Also, Moses Worster wasn't too clear on ordinal numbers. According to this stone, Manassah Fairbank died on "October 3th 1767."
