Cullings From Cheetham

The good people of Cheetham met at the cemetery one day the past week and put it in an excellent condition by removing all grass and fallen leaves and by making a new mound over each grave. It was a good deed, friends and an act of love and respect for the dead that should be emulated by some other communitities.
