Here Lies -, Who?

Every one who has visited
the city cemetery since the or
ganization of the Cemetery As
soeiation, and noted the changed
appearance of the whole place
from that which it wore before
these christian people took il
IN hand, will he impressed with
the Improvements made. and
will not withhold the praise
and thanks which are due to
these good, benevolent people
who have 50 faithfully per
formed this labor Of love. The
place does not look like the
slime "old graveyard; but, it
bears evidence df the fact that
loving care and thoughtful at
tention have been bestowed up
on the last resting place of
those who inhabit this silent
city.
And yet there is need of still
greater Improvement; and the
opportunity of making il now
offers itself. and ve feel sure
that our good people will not
neglect il, but will respond
cheerfully to the call which
both duty and love make in be-
half of those who sleep in this
lonely spot.
In this enclosure, known az
the "old grave yard, there are
about two hundred unknown
and unmarked graves, with
nothing to indicate whe was
buried there. except the mere
outline of a grave. With 2 view
to still further improve the APP
pearanec of the whole, and to
honor the memory of these un-
named dead, the Cemetery As
sociation has perfected arrange
ments whereby at a very trifling
expense all these graves can be
marked with a neat marble stat,
head and foot, and they earnest
~ desire that all who have "a
relative buried here will come
forward and help them in their
laudable work. These small
slabs, with the initials of the
name of the dead cut on them
can be had for the very small
sum of 60 cents, Or also for
head and foot stone, and il does
seem that every one can now
mark the grave of his loved
one In some way.
The Association desires To
enter into this work now, and
we call uponsevery one who has
the slightest interest in this
matter and who is not In a way
interested d to confer with Mr..
w. ID. Porter, or some member
of the Association at once and
let all these graves be marked.
W. trust you will do this, and
do il now.
