PRINCETON CEMETERY, NE. corner Witherspoon and Wiggins Sts., is the resting place of many distinguished Americans. At the southern edge are the graves of all dead presidents of Princeton except Finley, Dickinson and Wilson. Vice President Aaron Burr is also buried in this plot; the legend of a secret burial by night is untrue, for Burr was given full honors at the college chapel. Elsewhere are the graves of Grover Cleveland, Paul Tulane, founder of Tulane University ; members of the Colonial Assembly and the Continental Congress, and many Presbyterian leaders. The oldest monument, dated 1761, marks the grave of a young college student.
