Moehpeloh Cemetery Undergoes
General Cleanup And Improvement

Machpelah cemetery, one of the
county's oldest landmarks, is I'M
dergoing a general cleanup under
the direction of the cemetery
association.
One of the oldest cemeteries in
this area. its site is part of the
original land grand to the Dupont

by property. In March 1890, E. E.

inal 30 acres of cemetery prop
erty to the Pascagoula Cemetery
Association. for 5000.
Ten Acres Added 1880
On April 10, 1890, w. D. Bragg
sold to the association the adioin-
ing 10 acres, which later was
called the Machpelah cemetery.
The late John H. Hill, Sr., is
credited with giving the Gene
terry its name Machpelah.
The name was taken from the
Bible where the name Machpelah
was used in designating the old
est cemetery recorded when
Abraham bought a field to be
used as a burying place.
The late Capt. and Mrs. C. H.
Alley are recorded as the first TO
buy a plot in the cemetery. which
is now final resting place of many
of the countY's oldest settlers and
several succeeding generations.
John Hill, ST.. is said to have
purchased the second lot. which
Is directly across the drive from
the Alley lot. These two lots are
the first two within the cemetery
gates.
Inscribed upon the monuments
and tombstones are found many
names linked with the history of
the county-Krehs. Denny. Lew
is. Hill, Everett, Meriwether and
many, many others.

Japan Has Good
Future Is Belief
0f Club Speaker

Captain Charles w. Getz,
Brookley Field. Mobile, who has
recently returned after two and
a half years duty in Japan, gave
Rotarians a birdseye view of
Japan at a luncheon meeting of
the club Wednesday at the eoun-
try club.
Japanese are able to bear occu-
patton better than people of many
countries he said, because before
he wal the Japanese government
as feudalistie with large barons
in control and the majority of the
people relegated to serfdom. The
eople are accustomed to bow TO
power, he declared.
Occupation a Success
THE occupation has been a site
cess" he stated, with the great
ast problem that of rebuilding
industry and the general econo-
my. The government is now sim
liar to that of the United States
nd Great Britain-a constitution
al monarchy with a diet elected
by the people. The country has
been completely demilitarized but
there is a most efficient police
force"
Japan is. for the most part.
very modern with only parts of
the country remaining as in the
old days. Electricity is used
throughout and Tokyo is one of
the most modern cities in the
world.
Has Good Future"
Captain Getz expressed the be-
lief that Japan has a good future
but that occupation forces can
not be withdrawn until the world
is more stable.
A biography Of Earl Hammett
was presented by j. S. Boswell
as part of the program. Visitors
were Fred BaBiley, Birmingham,
