The dead are transported to the island in plain, pinewood boxes on Thursdays from the city morgue and on Fridays from the chief medical examiner's office. None are embalmed except those used for experimental purposes by a local embalming school. UNDER STATE LAW, according to Gallagher, bodies unclaimed within 48 hours can be taken to Potter's Field.

However, Gallagher says bodies are always held for at least five days before they are transported there. Potter's Field was created on the island on April 20, 1869. There are an average of 4,000 to 5,000 burials a year. About a thousand coffins are placed in rows in long trenches, approximately 150 feet long and eight feet deep. A work gang of 25 men is recruited from Rikers Island to perform the burial work.

The island is a dreary place that includes an assortment of vacant and decaying buildings, the largest of which is an abandoned Navy prison. From the water, one wall of the prison still greets passing boats with a grim warning, "Keep Out" Nothing is marked on the island to indicate it is Potter's Field or even Hart Island. The 45-acre cemetery is on the northeast side but its only markings are two giant religious crosses, one of which contains the one-word epitaph, "Peace-It is totally abandoned on weekends, with no caretakers to watch the bodies.
