INSCRIPTIONS ON TOMBSTONES U NEW HAVEN, ERECTED PEIOR TO 1800. A copy of these inscriptions, so far as legible, was printed (with annota- tions) in Volume III of the Papers of this Society, in 1882. Eecently a transcript of a portion of these inscriptions, made in 1851, has been found; and as this includes some copies of stones which had disappeared before 1882, it has been thought desirable to publish these, with some corrections for the previous list and for the annotations. These corrections are numbered to correspond to the former list; the new inscriptions are numbered in continuation. Fkanklin B. Dexter. March, 1914.
