The body of Count Arthur Tcherep Spiridovich, former officer of the Imperial Russian army, who was "accidentally" asphyxiated by illuminating gas last Friday, was saved from the potters field today when several Russian societies volunteered to take charge of it.

Burial Monday will be in St. Marys cemetery.

one person attempted to locate the grave at St Mary's, and they stated they couldnt find the record on him.. (hmmm)
Just in case, he was definitely interred in Staten Island. the question, which cemetery? St Mary's is possibly divided cemeteries??
