Granite are no worse than the
youngsters of other towns, but the

particularly to church property. 1t
happens that we have here in Gran
lite two or three churches that are
not occupied regularly and in the
past two or three years the windows
have been broken and the property
J otherwise damaged to a considerable
amount and the culprits who did the
nefarious work should be made to
suffer for it.
