JAMES OEWOLFE'S Grave
IS CAAOP|ED WITH FLOWERS
Circus People Give Mute
Testimony Of Esteem.
Floral Offering is the Most Beauti-
ful Ever Seen I'm the Marion Ccme-
terry.

The general public is prone to look
upon the people with a circus likt
the one which visited Marion, Thurs.
day as a .heartless bunch devoid OF
sentiment, but this was clearly dis
proven by the attaches of the Fore
paugh and Sells show, yesterday.
1t will be remembered that last
spring. the remains of James d.
Wolfe were brought here from Co
lumbus for interment. Dewolfe was
an old Marion boy who for a number
of years was connected with diff
ferent circuses in the capacity OF
press agent. His first show was the
Forepaugh and Sells. At the time OF
his death, the show was in the East
and 1t was impossible for the en-
ployes to send a floral piece or in any
manner express their feelings or
make any expression of the sentiment
they felt.
Thursday, donations were made by
all those connected with the. show
who had known Mr.. DeWolfe during
his lifetime and Beverley White,
press representative, Fred j. Warrel,
assistant manager, and Thomas e..
Burke, program manager, were dele
gated to procure suitable floral pieces
and place them on the grave of Mr..
DeWolfe. Mr.. Blake with two of his
men were engaged and the trip to the
cemetery was made. The grave OF
Mr.. Dewolfe was completely canopied
with flowers, the design being the
most beautiful ever seen in the Ma
rion cemetery.
Hundreds OF persons learning Of the
action of the circus people today
visited the cemetery 20 see the beauti-
fui floral Offering which gives mute
testimony of the regard in which Mr..
Dewolfe was held by those with
whom he associated during the days
of his life as press representative
of the Forepaugh and Sells circus.
