Late News From St. John's Mantels

Our group made more fast and efficient progress Thursday evening at Mantels. We are getting down to the nitty-gritty. The stones that had been discarded into the woods have mostly been reset using plot plans and relying on the old German-American burial method of chronology. A good number of headstones were epoxied back together and await their final touches using our ‘void mix’.

There is still the frustration of having bases for which we have found no matching headstones and headstones for which we’ve found no matching bases. Very Humpty-Dumptyesque at this point but getting better quickly.

Come join us. See you Saturday, September 10th at 9:00 a.m.
