I am writing a paper on the way kids(and i use that term lightly because people my age act immature) disrespect and destroy cemetaries. I have been to several cemetaries over the past few months and it is just upseting the damage done by people who think its fun to get drunk and kick over headstones. With Holloween coming upon us there is no doubt the damage will increase. I am hoping to have the paper published in the seattle times before Halloween comes to close. If someone could let me know how to get there so that I can take pictures of any damage and perhaps talk to the family members I would appreciate it.

also please email me if you have any comments you may like to add. Ladybloodlust@yahoo.com

Dumbasses,

There was no vandalism or signs of recent vandalism in the cemetery. Does the cemetery interest you? I would try contacting the Maltby town coucil. They are pretty informative.

Sincerely,

Frank Doolittle

No, it was no joke. Why do you think it was a joke?

We went out to Maltby cemetary tonight, but I have a few questions, and a story to share.

We took a right at the shell station, and continued on the road past Paradise Pet Lodge, etc

We saw a dirt road off to the left, so we took it.
About 50 feet up there was a sign that said “AREA UNDER 24 HOUR VIDEO SURVAILLACE”

we got out of the car, and began walking down this trail.
about 10 seconds down the trail, we hear these crazy *** hounds barking and howling.

we book it back to the car and leave…

first, were we in the right place
second, what the **** happened!!?!?

There is a dog kennel about a mile from there.

yea mabye we freaked out over nothing…..

omg, how do people know about the cemetary?

the glory of the internets

i dont mean by that i mean niether mind i guess i was like really blonde or was i how do people know about the story when like no one lives? see no i wasnt blonde! so yeah! and i was talking about how the person put it on the internet how they know so nate or who ever you are i am not dumb!

i guess because some people saw the guy go insane, and then went home and posted it on the internet.

I really have no clue, but I do believe this place is seriously haunted.

Yes, I have, and if you notice, there are members of the Davis Family in there. The Doolittles are closely related to the Davis’s, which is why there are both in the Maltby Cemetery. In my visit to Carnation Cemetery, I could not find the Davis graves, but am told that they are all in one family plot. The cemetery was started in 1906, yet two Davis graves are of 1904 and 1890. They apparently were moved from a Pleasant Hill Cemetery.

WOW U KNOW ANY OTHER COOL CEMETERIES?

i’ve been up to that cemetary briefly when i was in high school. i’d like to go again and check it out, but i was a little freaked out and my friends wanted to leave. someday, i’ll go back. you have to hike up a hill to get there

Frank(if it is indeed you, and not someone posing)-

Why hasn’t something been done to make this cemetery accessible to the pubic? There is obviously a lot of interest in it and if there were a proper way to visit it people would be able to fufill their curiosity without destroying it or having to break laws to visit it. Limit the access that the reckless idiots have and allow respectful people to experience this wonderful place. Building over it would be a shame, surely there is something you can do.

Simply censoring all information about the area and hoping the problem will go away (or erasing this piece of history all together) is the wrong way to go about it. Education and understanding is the way. The reason these website exist is because there is a hunger for information about the subject. Why not give people a true understanding of it?

Will, I can guarantee that I am not posing. I am a descendant of Lee Doolittle. We are not going to build over the cemetery. I said that we were going to have the graves moved. I have attempted to have the cemetery fully restored and opened to the public, but the present owner also has family in the cemetery, and feels different. I agree with you, education is the way, but sometimes we cannot trust the people who disagree. It’s a historic place, it really is, but it is also sacred. Removing information from the internet is just a possibility. I do not plan to do so, but if vandalism goes to any further extreme, I will consider it be done.
