The Chinese, who have been burying their dead in the graveyard east of the city, have left the graves — from which the bones have been exhumed and shipped to China — in a shocking condition. After taking out the bones they have left the graves open, with old clothes, pig tails and guns scattered promiscuously around. If they do not cover up their graves they should be made to find a new burying ground. And by-the-way, that graveyard is not kept in a creditable condition at any time. People who have friends buried there should fence in the cemetery, if nothing else.
