The Dorchester Reporter reports several hundred people gathered Sunday at the Old Dorchester North Burial Ground in Uphams Corner to learn more about the historic cemetery, one of the oldest in Boston, but rarely open to the public.

Excellent!
Events like this are very worthwhile. It was done last year in East Boston with the historical Bennington Street Burial Ground which is usually locked 365 days a year. As a long time East Boston resident I have walked by that locked cemetery daily for many years and knew very little about it. I learned quite a bit of history that day and got a free donut to boot.
Getting in isn't the problem.
Getting in isn't the problem.
Getting out is the real trick.
Why do they put fences around cemetaries?
Because people are dying to get in.
