interesting) occupants therein.

North End, nestled atop the tallest point in one of Boston's
oldest historic districts.
Here you will visit the final resting place of Cotton Mather, a
man famous for his "intimate" involvement with the Salem
Witch Trials.
Then to the Granary Burying Ground where you will
visit the final resting places of many of the famous heroes of
the American Revolution including John Hancock, Paul Revere and
