Letter: on keeping cemeteries clean James Roberts writes: I have an idea for keeping the cemeteries clean and neat looking.

Goff Motel, 1942 - 1953 By JIM In June 1941, J.H. Goff paid George Simpson $2,750 for property fronting on Merchant Street, and The News reported the house thereon contained 18 rooms.
