The year was 1872, the “Greatest Show on Earth’s “Figi Cannibal” took sick in his hotel and died. He was buried in Potter’s Field. Twenty-five years later, individuals buried in this pauper’s cemetery were exhumed. One story has it that the “Cannibal’s” body was discovered missing and would never be moved to its new burial site on a remote hilltop in North York. And it’s interesting that he died the very year that the historically Black Lebanon Cemetery was started on a nearby hilltop.
