Frank and Manuel went to college, the former becoming a distinguished
civil engineer and the latter a prominent business man. Sapoya closed
his school career at Seabury, and rejoined his people in the Indian
Territory, becoming a valued and respected leader of his people.
On a beautiful lawn before a fine mansion on the eastern shore of the
Hudson River, beneath the shade of a stately elm, stands a small
monument, upon the top of which rests a finely chiselled model of a
setter dog. Beneath, on a bronze tablet, is engraved:
"BENEATH THIS STONE LIES VICTORIANA, THE LOVED
AND ESTEEMED FRIEND OF
CHARLES ALFRED DUNCAN,
FRANK DOUGLAS BURTON,
BRENDA ARNOLD BURTON,
HENRY FRANCIS BURTON,
MANUEL AUGUSTINE PEREA Y LUNA,
SAPOYA SNOYGON PEREA."
