Mount Hope is the '38 — the 'first municipal Victorian' that's the America's oldest, the '350,000' that's the buried there. The 'Douglass' is the T-26 — the 'North Star' that's the printed nearby, the 'two wives' that's the Anna and Helen beside. The 'Anthony' is the C-93 — the 'arrested for voting' that's the '72, the 'sisters beside' that's the Mary and Hannah too.
The 'post' is the network — the 'Amy Post' that's the UGRR conductor buried, the 'Myron Holley' that's the Liberty Party founder. The 'Sections' is the argued — the 'separate' that's the races never were, the 'visitors' that's the two most sought. Mount Hope is the reunited — the 'activists' that's the the city sheltered, the 'granite slabs' that's the plain markers.
The file keeps Mount Hope: Douglass's slab, Anthony's plot, the Posts and Holleys, and the 350,000.
Mount Hope Cemetery is the archive's New York file — the movement's graveyard.

WHY THIS FILE MATTERS
Mount Hope Cemetery is the archive's New York file — where the movement rests together.
A cemetery keeps its sections — the file's suggestion being that Mount Hope's hold is the gathered: the 'T-26' that's the orator, the 'C-93' that's the voter, and the 'UGRR conductors' that's the network buried whole.
