ped in sheets, placed in handsom
caskets and brought by truck t

of the unfortunate victims. Mr
Waters wore a monogram ring, Mis
Meschine a handsome diamond rin
and Mr. Manning a watch and be
with engraving. Mt. Carmel refuse
any remuneration for what she ha

portunity-to.make a material e:
pression of her sympathy for th
distressed families. ^

generosity of our sister towns alor

made at the same hour in the Pre
