Grass for the GAR plot

B. A. Rankin has been circulating a petition that has been numerously signed which will be presented to the Board of Supervisors, asking that body to appropriate $25 per year towards maintaining a grass plot in the GAR plot in the cemetery.

With a handsome monument in the center of a sward of green, the eye of the visitor will be attracted in a pleasing manner, and he will carry away with him feelings of respect and admiration for a community thus paying a just tribute to the memory of their honored dead.
