We visitd Mount Auburn, which is considerd one of the Most interesting Cemetrys in the world. We next visitd Bunker hill Monument & Father Carter though 76 years old walked to the top of that monument 222 feet hight. After looking through our glasses & with the Naked eye evry point of compass we then desended the way we Come up & returned home.
