HUNT'S POINT 



101 



The little cemetery is also the final resting place of veterans 

 of the various Colonial wars and of Continental soldiers, members 

 of the Hunt, Leggett, Willett and allied families. 



Directly opposite the Hunt burying ground is a small en- 



Slave Burying Ground 



closure in which the slaves of early residents were interred. It is 

 also said that "Bill," the negro pilot of the wrecked British frigate 

 Hussar, was buried there: 



'After the voice of shrieking winds 

 And tossing of the angry deep, 

 In kind embrace of Mother Earth 

 Resting, like child in quiet sleep."
