Little interest Is being taken
in keeping the cemeteries in our
county In trim. Possibly the
two that are best kept are the
Brodhead cemetery and the Maret
cemetery near Wilde. None
would object to being laid away
at either of these places when
the final summons comes, but
few of US would designate any
of the others as a final resting
place on account of bushes and
briars being so thick. If our
loved ones who are sleeping at
any of these other than the two
mentioned should awake and look
ubout they would certainly be
ashamed of US not keeping things
in better order. This paper is
is ready to print announcements
that the folks will meet at any
or all of these cemeteries and
clean up. If some OF those in
terested will set the day we will
let the people know.
