      UPDATE - Infant's headstone retured to grave
      Associated Press

      "A headstone recovered earlier this year from a South Carolina houseboat has been returned to West Virginia to mark the grave of an unnamed infant who died in 1894.

      A handful of relatives gathered Thursday at Monte Vista Cemetery in Mercer County as the marker was reset.

      It's not clear how the headstone got aboard a boat docked at the Charleston City Marina in South Carolina, where it was discovered in February by a police officer.

      According to an engraving on the family headstone, the infant son of George Asbury Hypes and Sarah McClanahan Hypes was born Nov. 1, 1894 and died 28 days later.

      Henry "Bub" Hypes is a nephew to the infant. He says he's sure his uncle would appreciate Thursday's efforts."
