Paragraph next to picture:
The grave marker for Hannah Cranna, Monroe's "WITCH", is just over the town line in Trumbull in Gregory's Four Corners Burial Ground. According to one legend, Hannah said she would take herself to her grave. As her coffin was being carried over the ice, the coffin slid down the hill and into the grave by itself.
