The Giantess of Pine Cemetery

THE GRAVE OF A GIANTESS.

Norwalk, Conn., May 12,-There is a grave in Pine Island Cemetery that is no  less than 10 feet long. It is that of Mrs. Mary Titus, a widow, who was laid to rest there on Feb. 5, 1769, a little over 119 years ago, in the nintieth year of her age. Tradition has it that Mrs. Titus was a giantess, which fully explains the enormous length of her grave.  It is situated in a remote corner of the large burying ground, and its existence had been almost forgotten. A few days ago it was discovered by some city people visiting here.
