Sacred to the memory of John Wood, from his wife--1864. Note--This is one of the best preserved headstones and enclosures in the cemetery, the latter being of iron, and 43 years old. My friend, Mr. Higgins, in his book "The Mystic Spring," gives the story of this clever actor, and his wife also, so I will not enlarge on it. John Sparks, age 28 years; killed by the explosion of steamer _Cariboo_, Aug. 2, 1861. Smith Baird Jamieson, killed by the explosion of steamer _Yale_--April, 1861; Archibald Jamieson, and James Baird Jamieson, killed by the explosion of steamer _Cariboo_ in Victoria harbor, Aug. 2, 1861, three brothers, sons of Robert Jamieson, Brodick, Isle of Arran, Scotland.--I refer my readers to Mr. Higgins' book for the story of these brothers also. I remember the morning of the explosion of the _Cariboo_. It woke up the whole town. I think her bones lie in the mud alongside Turpel's ways in Songhees reserve.
