own-and leaving his relatives out en-

time after, the widow died, also, and was
buried, la the little plot of ground with
her late husband and the property left

was cleaned of weeds and grass, and that
of the husband, in the same lot, was left '
overgrown with Natures spontaneity. {

would not have been and the people
would have had no cause to make re- S
marks about it. e
