The stone seems to say "Bones from Saint Lawrence's Church deposited on 17 April 1871", although I don't know what "D. M." stands for. The mason also seems to have misspelt "ossements" (left the T out -- oh well, it's not pronounced anyway). Hmm, I knew that Parisians had used the Catacombs as an underground graveyard for centuries, but not that there were any well organized underground charnel houses like this one down there. I must see the Catacombs if I go to Paris again. How easy is it to reach the "non public tunnels"?
