CommentKnown only through George H. Richardson's transcription (GHR) in 1887 of a single stone for a man killed by lightning (Richardson Scrapbook 974 at Newport Historical Society, p. 23). The location is based on the site of B. Hick's house on a Beers map. Richardson commented that the stone was in an orchard.
