May Reach Old
Age in Ashland

Sexton Walrad's report for the
past month contains some very inter-
esting facts in regard to burials dur
ing the past month. There was an
unusual number of deaths, ten peo-
pie having passed away. Several of
these, however, were not Ashland
residents Out of the ten who were
buried, one was seventy years of age,
one seventy-three, two seventy-eight,
one eighty-nine and one ninety-three.
This speaks well for the age that is
attained in Ashland's healthful sur
roundings.
Fifteen dollars was the sum re-
ceived during the month for sale of
lots. The council was asked for an
appropriation OF $50 for the purpose
of hiring a man to assist with the
work Of cleaning up the cemeteries
and putting them in shape for the
Decoration day services. 1t has been
an annual custom in the past to ap-
this amount.
