No suspicion had been entertained by the keepers of his having any intention of putting an end to his existence.” Source: Republican Star and General Advertiser, Easton, Maryland, 09 May 1826; Contributed by Pam Brinegar.

No cemetery was listed. He was most likely buried in the Lunatic Asylum Cemetery in an unknown grave on the grounds on Eastern State Hospital. 2603:6010:3207:8BA9:F575:8E47:ED0E:26B7 (talk) 14:15, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
