0LDNYM0RE CEMETARY
ASSOCIATION TO JOIN
GREEN WOOD ASS0'N

Who is going to look after the old
Nymore cemetery? Does it belong
to the dead or the living? Has the
city council anything to say about
it?
These and more were some of the
questions arising from a discussion
by the "city fathers" at the council
meeting last evening.
Then arose the question of what
to do with the remains which were
buried near the old Shevlin addi-
tion. 1t was brought out that a
grave was being driven over in that
vicinity and Alderman Smith was
chosen to look after the removal of
the remains to the old Nymore ceme-
terry.
No conclusion was reached as to
who the present Nymore Cemetery
association was. and the matter was
referred to Tom Smart, who is a
member of the Greenwood Cemetery
association, and who will bring the
matter of amalagamation up at the
next regular meeting Of that body.
