roMssroRE's RICH
IN FINE ROMANCE
lBisbee Review


ST. David road. is cemetery. Be-
hind a plain iron fence. it lies like a
thousand ether little cities OF the
dead And like a thousand other
little cities OF the dead. it has its
aris,ocracy. Granite shafts and
marble stones rise above some Of
the graves in impressive. oft times
naughty grandeur.
But in a far corner lies the poorer
section of this little city. There
plain wooden slabs mark the final
resting place OF paupers and old
timers" alike. Perhaps il some OF
these could speak. stories far richer
in romance than We have in books
wonid be told perhaps the great
tragedy would be voiced.
IL is q question when the first bu
rial there took place. although il was
probably a miner-a man lured from
in AN abrupt manner Death came
his home by gold and the dream OF
riches. and a man who met his end

when Tombstone was rich in gilded
richness and gay in gaudy gayness.

markers 10 rise in the cemetery. half

been many cases where the date OF
birth was unknown. and some cases
where the name itself was unknown;

thing across its face-if nothing more
than the terse "R. l. p"

most near to us. But these people

buried under these wooden slabs in
Tombstone seem fanciful part of
the past. Nature has taken a hand
and Obliterated whatever trace of
realism there was about them by
wiDing clean from those slabs what
little remained OF their history. Per-

new Tombstone slowly rises 10 take
the place OF the old substantial
western city gradually replaces the
famous mining camp and what has
been lost in the wealth and popula

says one hundred per cent pure. The
new Tombstone has the right spirit,

And the little cemetery on the ST.
