How Sensible Is It To Appoint A Convicted Felon A Prosecutor?
Who Cares About An Old Cemetery?

It's been said that you can tell a lot about a community by observing how they treat the elderly, children and their cemeteries.
On the northern boundary of Sleepy Hollow Apartments, adjacent to athletic fields of Monticello High School, there sits a small abandoned cemetery. Located inside a dilapidated split rail fence are several graves, with at least two visible tombstones. One marks the final resting place of Daniel Litts. The stone has been knocked over and lies flat on the ground, its lettering is barely legible. Next to to it is an unmarked block which which may memorialize Danie's wife Metje (Martha), who reportedly died on November 4, 1859 in Forestburgh. Metje was christened 7 April 1776 in Shawangunk, Ulster County, making her 82 years old at the time of her death.
The tract on which Monticello High School and Sleepy Hollow Apartments are today situated, in the southwestern section of what is now the Village of Monticello, was once owned by Ezekiel I. Masten. A portion described as being "on the road from Mamakating Hollow to Kinnebrook" was granted by Johannes Masten and Magdalena (or Madleen) Swart, who was born about 1756, to their sons-in-law Daniel Litts and Evert Terwilliger who moved there in February 1797.

Writing as an advocate for the mentally and physically disabled residents of Sullivan County who are entitled to vote by Absentee Ballot, I am also concerned as a taxpayer that, if adequate safeguards are not in place, the County of Sullivan opens itself to civil liability to a large class of potential plaintiffs.
