Dr. Rolo's Wish   
~~~~~

    Some days ago while Benton Willey was visiting Dr. Rolo who is very low with consumption at his near Wilderville, the Doctor expressed the wish that his four little children, who are burried at the Bozeman graveyard, could be moved to Rosebud, as he wished to be burried there himself and would love to have them alltogether.  With that friendship which has ever been a characteristic of the man, Mr. Wiley selected him a lot in Woodland cemetery and on Tuesday went out and brought in the remains of the little ones and had them interred here.  Such acts of kindness as the above are sure to bring their reward.

Dr. J. L. Roll Dead
~~~~~

    Dr. J. L. Roll, who has been suffering with consumption for several months past, died at his near Wilderville Satrday night, surrounded by his family and a few friends.
    For some time he had known that his death might come at any moment, and he seemed perfectly resigned to the inevitable.
    He was a fine physician and was honored and respected by the people for whom he had labored many years.
    His remains were interred in Woodland Cemetery, in this city, Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock, besides the graves of his four little children, whose remains were recently brought here from the Bozman burying ground.
