Grave of Simon Whipple Aldrich in Rhode Island
The inscription "Altho’ consumption’s vampire grasp Had seized thy mortal frame..." has connected him to the New England Vampire Panic, though there's no evidence this was a case of exhumation or accused vampires. The lines are actually from a poem that commemorates the 1838 death of abolitionist Joseph Horace Kimball.
