A Cenjjetery a Necessity,
When we look about the well $1
led church yards of this town, jye
realize the fact that not much space
remains in .which to pury our dead,
and when ve stand above the open
grave of a departed friend or rela
tive and see that grave nil ynth
water, because of the low situation
and ill drainage, we realize that pur
town needs some better place as a
.burying ground for our departed
ones.
it seems to us that aside frorp the
humiliation of haying to copsign
our dead to a watery grave, the
health of the town 3 not being pro
moted by the act.
Let our people copsider the ques
tion of a cemetery, and at once take
action to purchase a suitable plot of
ground. The time is near when
this must be done, and yy not
now ?
Let the various churches act with
the town in accomplishing this mucn
needed object.
