Buried in the woods
Article Abstract:
A small cemetery near Bath, ME, is hidden away from daily life in the woods. The cemetery dates back to the early 1800s when the town of Bath was founded, and it is evident that no one takes care of the headstones or the area, but the history of the area is evident.
