If there isn’t a ghost story about this monument, there should be. This monument in Kirtland Historic North Cemetery is for a small girl. She and her family were traveling westward and stopped in Kirtland for the night during a snow storm. The little girl found her way outside and froze to death before she could be found. A stone representation of her lies inside a glass case on a stone bed and pillow, harder but safer than the snow that made her final pillow and blanket that night.
