BERKELEY, Calf, Feb. IL A9--
A tale of a strange fate of once
famous scion of ore of Americas
Oldest families, came to light today
in the dispatches from Utica, N. Y.
that the body OF DIR. George Hilies
sass had been taken from a paup-
ers grave and was to be brought to
the San Fr,1cisco bay region for
final Tsepulture.
The dim beginnings of the story
might be traced back to the revoIuN
tionary war when Michael Hillegass,
evidently man cf wealth and pow
er rebelled against the sovereign
power Of Great Britain and threw
his influence and treasure to the
case of the struggling colonies. His
pictures adorns some of the 10 go1G
.xotes of She country today, although
his history is somewhat obscure.
Historians of the family here tracee
George Hillegass' ancestry to Mich
ael IIillegass. The doctor, one OF
the noted physicians of his, time, is
credited with having given to- the
University of California much of the
land included within the present
campus and also to have developed
extensive holdings in other sections
of Berkeley and Oakland. A Berk-
eiey avenue is named after the fam

Persistent coughs and colds lead to seri-
Gus trouble. You can stop them now with
Creomulsion, an emulsihed creosote that
is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is new
medical discovery with two-fold action; it
soothes and heals the inAamed membranes
and inhibits germ growth.
OF all known drugs, creosote is recog-
nzed by high medical authorities as one
Of the greatest healing agencies for per-
sistent coughs and colds and other forms
of throat troubles. Creomulsion contains,
in addition to creosote, other healing ele-
ments which soothe and heal the infected
membranes and stop the irritation and
inflammation, while the creosote goes on
to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood,
attacks the seat of the trouble and checks
the growth Of the germs.
