THE CEMETERY.

The sexton of the cemetery grounds,
Mr.. Simons, says that some persons have
dug graves outside of their lots in the
walks. 1t would be we'll for persons
digging graves when the lots are not dis
tinctly marked to at least have the sex
ton show them where to dig them. Mr..
Simons also informs us that there are
quite number of graves that need I'LL
ing up, or all traces of them will soon be
lost. We feel that it is only necessary
to call attention to these matters to have
them attended to promptly. Much has
been done by our authorities and the
sexton to get the cemetery grounds in
good order, and by little attention on
the par. of those interested they can be
kept so. The sexton is filing up and
properly marking all graves that belong
to unknown parties, and cleaning up
rubbish from about the ground. Let
our people lend helping hand and
make this the resting place for our dead
beautiful and attractive.
