Knoxville, Oct, 9, 1565. ■ Bowxaw* 1 - The WelUboro Cemetery Obmpaey. It has been said that the degree of civilization and refinement enjoyed by a community may be known oq view ot its burial-place. We believe the tost to be a just one j and so believing,, presume that a lew words touching the efforts of our Cemetery Company to give Wellsboro and vicinity a'good name among men, will not be misplaced. « The Company was incorporated by act of Assembly approved April, 1849, but nothing was done until the passage of the supplemental act of April, 1855, substituting Messrs. Chester Robinson, Wm. Baehp, Geo, McLeod, S. F. Wilson, S, E/Ensworth, James' I. Jackson, Joseph Riberolle, and Levi I. NichoL, lo lieu-of the persons named as corporators in the orlg in&l act. In July, following, the Company organised by electing L, I, Niohols President, James I. Jackson Secretary, and J. L. Robinson Treasurer. A com mitsse on location whs also appointed,-which ut&de a .final report on the 7th of September, and the Board decided to ■'purchase the present site, then owned by 8. P. Wilson, containing 9£ acres. The price paid was $475. Ib -November, following, the ground was cleared/ plowed and laid down,' and considerable progress made in improving the grounds under the superinten dence of Mr. B. F, Hathaway,- of Flashing, L. I. The price oC lota was first fixed at 3 and 10 cents per foot; but in June, 1858, the minimum price was fixed at 6 cents per foot, and a sale by public outcry ordered for the ißth of August. A Board of Managers was elected September 1, of that year, as follows: Messrs, Chester Robinson, Wm. Bache, Geo. McLeod, S. F. Wilson, S. E, fins- X, Japksoj],. Joseph Riberolle, L. I, Ni chols, and Peter Green. The Managers encountered many obstacles (for the work of civilization is never light), but by dint of steady perseverance they tri umphed over apathy and prejudice.' By tbe-.issue pf scrip, for the redemption of which the proceeds of future sales of lots was pledged, the Company carried on the work of improvement. steadily, and the num ber of lotbolders measurably increased. In October,lB66; Mr.* William Bache was elected President of (he Company, and Messrs. Jackson, and Robinson, were re-elected Secretary, and Treasurer, respectively. The Board remained unchanged up to last September, when M. H. Cobb was elected‘Sehri tary, vice James L Jackson, resigned.' The. original Board of Managers, with the exemption of Messrs. Robert Campbell and Wm. P. Shumwdy, elected In place of Mcssrs. MeLeod-and C. Robinson in 1862, still continues. At a meeting of the Board on the 16th ultimo, the President reported one-fourth of the lots sold, and tho virtual extinction of the corporation indebted ness. The work of improving and beautifying the grounds will now be steadily prosecuted. The Co., is now.preparing to enlarge the premises by purchase of lands adjoining, and it is to be hoped that negoci atious to that end may not meet With unusual bln .drance. * Already the improvements reflect credit up on the management. Trees have been planted, ther sloughs reclaimed, and roadways improved by-Tabor: and the lapse of. time. The enterprise" has’ emerged from its embarassmehts, and seconded by a generous' and appreciating public can now essay a larger meas ure ofimprovement. AH should remember that the. stranger will make our Cemetery the test of our cul ture, and progress in civilisation. Every bead of every family in this region should hasten to identify himself with this effort to render th« pl«cw of the dead as pleasing to the eye as the grounds which sar roand the homes of the living.
