the Dolores hall last Saturday noon,
Reverend Father L. A. McAlaney
officiating. and the remains were
laid 10 rest in the Dolores cemetary.
The SILVER STAR joins the many
friends i'll extending sincere sympa-
thy to the family in their sorrow.
Ever since we have been in this
thriving little city we have won-
dered why more care was MT taken
Of the cemetary. Those who have
friends or relatives buried there
have taken pains to try to raise
flowers and grass around the graves
and only those who have erected
some sort Of fence have had any
success, as cattle run rampant over
the place and even the fences. erect
cd fail to keep them out in some in
stances. A good, substantial fence
could be built at a small cost and
we are sure the necessary amount
can be raised by subscription. The
editor of this paper will donate 81.
and a days work to the cause if
others will follow suit.
