Bradford, Pa.?That the tomb of Daniel Kingsbury, one of the first settlers of Bradford, Is being desecrated by being used as a gambling den is the startling information which has reached the elty police department. Kingsbury was one of the original owners of the 2T>0,000 acres of land whero Hradford now stands, and at his request a burial plot was laid out on Qulntuplo hill, a Bite from which a person may gazo over the entire city and valley. Within a short time vandals hnvo broken open the vault and have used the lnelosure as a gambling den. An oil worker, who passed the plot, heard voices and Investigated, on f the inside were live young men, who onooi uraps on uottin. hy tho light of an old railroad lantern without the globe wore engaged in shooting ctaps on top of tho ooflln. The burial place of tin1 early settlor shows negleot. Tho top of the tomb has boon partly removed, and tho gamblers, by digging down on nno side gained an entrance to the cave. An Iron fence Is falling down, and the spot Is partly filled with hrush. Some time ago there was talk of rebuilding the vault, but the project never reach ed fullillment. Several days ago a resident met hpv eral boys in the vicinity of the vault. They were from 7 to 10 years old. "We liiive fmmil :i skill i mi " c.-ilil cno of the youngsters. "('(Hue up h*ni we'll show you!" They led *<> man to the Kingsbury vault. A small hole had been tunneled through tho ground at the base, large enough to admit the body of a boy. One lad, who seemed to be the leader of tho crowd, wormed himself through tho opening, dropping down to a plank which had bom. placed in a slanting position against the wall of the vault, and then slid to the bottom. Daniel Kingsbury died Oct. 0, 1S70, and was 07 years old. His w ife, Kuby N. Kingsbury, who died Juily 22, 1SSS, was SO years old.
