Erie Street Squirrel

Red squirrel in a saucer magnolia tree
Erie Street (East Ninth) Cemetery Cleveland, O., is a green space between asphalt, brick, and cement. There are relatively few monuments, and burials remaining. It is a quiet spot just south of Cleveland's financial district, and across the street from the new base ball park.
There is one drive that splits the long rectangle of a graveyard, betwixt East 14th and 9th, in twain. The building in the background is the home field of the Indians of the American League.
The stone on the left is the same in two photographs. It is pitted plaque on multi-cracked cement. It is a Memorial Day Association veterans' commemoration for the Grand Army of the Republic (Union troops).
