A Card.

Mr.. EDITOR Il take this mode
of expressing my heartfelt thanks
to my much esteemed friend, DR..
Wilkinson, for the kind attention
he has given my daughter, Mrs. w.
w. Rafter, since she has been res
dent of this city. l have great
reason to express confidence in him
as q medical practitioner, not only
from my experience in consulta-
tons with him at the bedside of
some of his patients, during my
stay in your flourishing and very
interesting city, but that he is a
graduate of one of the best medi-
cal colleges in Canada, which is of
itself much to the credit of the
doctor, although he is now practic-
ing in the United States. | feel
that l can safely recommend him to
the public as trustworthy physi-
clan, and consider him quite safe
and reliable in critical and danger
Gus cases.
do not feel that / can leave the
city without stating tina. since my
arrival here, / have enjoyed myself
exceedingly. regret very much
to leave the many kind friends Of
my daughter and son-in-law. May
God prosper You all and them, not
only in temporal, but i'll spiritual
blessings abundantly.
No, Mr.. Editor, feeling that duty
prompts my return to my field OF
practice, there to resume the re
sponsibiity of administering to the
wants and necessities of those that
are in distress for want of medical
aid, / purpose leaving during the
early part of next week, still hop
ing that at some future time / may
have the privilege of meeting the
good people of Alpena again. Feel
ing that l have trespassed quite
enough on your patience and space,
will bid You farewell.

City Dads.

A full board was present at the meet
ing of our City Parents, on Monday
night, and we are pleased to state that 1t
was the most harmonious meeting yet
held by the present Council.
The Comptroller presented a report,
showing the financial condition of the
city on the first day of August, 1874.
A communication was received from
John O'Neil, in which he rendered his
resignation az policeman. Resignation
accepted, to take immediate effect.
The Street Commissioner was instruct
ed to notify parties owning property on
north side Of Lockwood street, between
Fifth and Eight, to lay sidewalk.
The bids for clearing Chisholm street,
ranging from 30 cents to one dollar per
rod, were read and the Comptroller or
dered to contract for the work with
Alex. Kenyon, he being the lowest bed
der.
The Comptroller was ordered to adver-
tise for proposals to make tank in the
Third ward, for the use of the fire en-
CINE.
The matter of making an appropria-
ton from the funds of the city for i'm
provements in the Cemetery, was brought
up by the Comptroller, and Aid. Seage
stated that the Ways and Means Com
mittee had had the subject under consid-
Grafton for some weeks, and would report
at next meeting
A committee, consisting of the Mayor
and Aid. Pack and Campbell were APP,
pointed to make q settlement with the
county Of Alpena.

Dissatisfaction.

Complaints have recently been
made to us in regard to the prices
fixed by the Common Council for
burial lots in Evergreen Cemetery.
Il is claimed that parties in rather
poor circumstances, before they
could bury the remains of their de-
parted friends, have been compelled
to pay for a full lot, $40, which was
entirely beyond their means. There
seems to be an impression among
some of our citizens that $40 is the
lowest price for which burial per-
NIT can be obtained in the cemetery
under the existing ordinance; but

w. III. Post has re-opened his
meat market, corner Dock and
Fletcher streets.
Jas. Cavanagh is in town, and we
believe he is going into the lumber
ing business here the coming win
ter.
The Alpena Olympic Society will
give an entertainment at their hall
this evening. Admission % cents.
Children 10 cents. Go and see the
boys perform, and encourage them
in giving home entertainments.
III. II. Wittelshofer has received
a lot of new Episcopal hymn books.
Bewick, Comstock Il Co. have
served an injunction on Geo. N.
Fletcher, restraining him from col
lecting any more harbor dues from
them at this port.
The new boilers and machinery
are in the hemlock extract factory,
and operations are to be commence
ed at once.
When our people visit Bay City,
they should endeavor to find lodg-
ing place before two o'clock in the
morning. 1t is apt to make a man
say "cuss words" to be awakened
from sweet sleep at that hour.
The sidewalk on the north side
of Washington avenue is being put
down. Now let the Council see
that other walks are repaired in
proper shape. There are plenty
of opportunities.
The Michigan State Fair will be
held at East Saginaw, Sept. IA. Is,
16, II, Is and 10.
Get your children ready fol
school, which commences on Mon.
day next.
The Cemetery is in a very bad
condition, and is in need of prompt
attention. 1t needs cleaning up
trees trimed, and fence built
around the entire grounds.
We don't hear anything NOR,
in regard to the Alpena Count,
Agricultural Society. Has tn
matter ''fell through r.
The mill whistle ordinance ha
not made its appearance yet. Tn
people are getting somewhat anx
ious about it. They don't like tn,
whistle.
A. Anspach is in town, and will
remain but few days, when he will
go east for the purpose of purchas
ing large stock of goods for tn
Alpena trade.
We learn from reliable authorit,
that Mr.. VIM. Jenney has purchas
ed the vacant lot on the northeas
corner of Washington avenue an
Third street, and will immediatel
commence the erection of a stor

Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1874-09-02

in regard to this there is q misun-
derstanding somewhere, The lots
in Evergreen Cemetery are sold at
the following prices;
Lot l6 by "a feet, SO
Lot l6 by IL feet, 6
Lot 10 by Is feet, 8
Lot s by 10 feet, s
Burial permit, for one grave, l
1t will thus be readily seen that
the prices are by no means exhorb-
ant. If parties do not feel able to
purchase lot, it costs but one dol
lar to procure burial permit, which
allows the making of one grave.
On the contrary, those who wish a
lot large enough for number of
graves, can be accommodated at
prices ranging from five to ten dol
lars each, according to size Of lot.
In our opinion the prices for bur-
ial lots in the cemetery are quite rea-
sonable, and all will, no doubt,
consider them so when the matter
is fully understood. 1t will cost no
small amount to put the cemetery
grounds in proper shape, and to
keep them so from year to year,
and the calculation is that the sums
obtained from the sale Of lots shall
be expended in making improve
ments in and about the cemetery.
Surely the prices are low, and the
purpose to which the money is to
be put is laudable one.

Our "devil" begins to feel uneasy
in regard to the probability of ob-
tanning sufficient amount of cur
rency to get his shirt washed this
week, and perpetrates the follow
ing:
Come down, dearest patrons, come down with the
stamps,
Our paper mans bills are unpaid;
You said you would call at the Office and settle,
On returns from your lumber sales made.
Gene down Oh, come dswnl
Will some one take pity on the
poor fellow, curry him down with
a hay rake, and "put him in his lit
tie bed"
