buying from him and laying out Il Gem
etery over there. From the remarks
of Mr.. Miller in his arguments before
the council, r'People could get lot for
less than it would cost to send the dead
away and besides they would have 4
civilized resting place. People object
to being buried in the Fast end,"l We
Judge he is a new conner or that he is
prcjudiccd. BY the time he succeeds
in getting this scheme through he Will
have changed his opinions and at least
become convinced that we are civilized
