Article clipped from Reno Weekly Gazette and Stockman

Tjik burial of the three young men killed in Sunday's railroad accident, without any ceremony or mark of respect to either the living or the dead, is exciting considerable adverse ciiticism, and is a stain upon our heretofore fair name that will require a good many kind deeds to blot out, They were tramps, to be sure, but at the same time they were human beings and as dear to their families as any ol our boys are dear to us, and the carting away and dumping them in the potters' field without any ceremony whatever is a burning disgrace, and the Gazette hopes it will never occur again. It would have been an easy matter to have invited some clergyman to have offered a prayer and given notice of the time of burial, so if anv one had desired they could have aliened if nothing more.
