America has a nice feature on this cemetery, with its crazy, elaborate
stone carvings. Looks fascinating! (Thanks to Bruce for the suggestion.)

Before
Timothy Clark Smith died in 1893, he made arrangements to make sure
that if he was buried alive, there would be a way for him to get out
of the predicament.Timothy's face was positioned beneath a cement tube
that led to the surface. The 6 foot tube ended at a piece of 14x14 inch
plate glass allowing Tim to gaze upward in the event that he was buried
alive. A bell was placed in his hand just in case he needed to signal
that he was still alive. You can still see Timothy's strange grave at
the Evergreen Cemetery in New Haven. (Thanks to Amos Quito for
the suggestion.)
