MOVED TO THE NEW CEMETERY

Mr. and Mrs. David Shields of Ogden, Utah and Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Shields of Pocatello, Idaho, were here this week looking after the removal of the remains of their father, mother and sisters from the old cemetery to the new Riverview cemetery. The sisters passed away in 1870, the father in 1886 and the mother in 1891. The elder Shields in the early days was a bridge tender at this point, and the family was well and favorably known to all old residents. A. M. Shields was born in Green River in 1874. They desire that the Star express their thanks for the kind acts of Marshal Mike Maher and others who were so kind and thoughtful during their stay in Green River on their sad errand.

During their stay in town they visited with their old schoolmate, Charles Hammond, and family.
