PAUL JONES'S LAST BURIAL
Midshipman escorting the casket to its final resting place, in Annapolis, April 24th, 1906
In 1905, the American Embassy in Paris exhumed the body of America's glorious hero, after it had lain hidden for one hundred and thirteen years in the abandoned Cemetery of St. Louis. Under escort of one of our finest naval squadrons the body was brought to the United States and buried with much ceremony in Arlington, the National Cemetery at Washington.
