Williams, j. w. Chew. All were present
but Mr.. Chew. 1t was decided at this
meeting there should be no more burial
lots sold without the cash or at least one
half cash down and the rest should be paid
on the installment plan, one dollar per
month until the full amount is received.
they also resolved that they should charge
$50 per lot instead $12, which they have
been charging. They also desire all those
who haye purchased burial lot and have
not complied with the conditions to come
Immediately and secure deed or it might
cause them some trouble in getting grave
opened for their dead. The sexton must
see deed or receipt for lot before he
can open graves. This cemetery is a very
pretty burial spot The fence is in good
order and she cemetery is moved twice
a year, which means an expense to the
trustees, therefore they are obliged to raise
the price of lots. Mr.. Henry Watson has
the oontract Of cutting row of lots which
be will put in good shape, SO as to have
them in readiness. There is some talk Of
having we'll dug in the near future.

J Weekly subscriptions are being raised to

It isn't necessary to 90 out Of Westville
for good catcher, as Harry Glenn can
handle Miller better than any one else, and
| it is not only just that he given a trail.
He is also the best run-getter the team eyer
had. The writer has bis base ball record
ever since he played in Westyille over ten
years ago and knows what he is talking
about when he makes this assertion. Give
your home players chance.
