Complaint has been made to the
officers of the Cemetery Association that
flowers, plants and shrubbery is being
carried away from the grounds. The
association in the future will employ all
possible means to ferrit out the ones
who are pilfering from the yard and
cause them to be punished. Every
plant, shrub and -four in the cemetery
is private property and no one has a
right to carry them away. Stealing from
grave yard would seem to be the most
contemplate of all thefts and the pun
ishment ought to be severe.
