Old Albert Hill, the "laughing grave

dvig his last grave. Anit when it was
finished and he was slicking It up for

he raised his shovel overhead, muttered
goodby to his helper and fell back Into

Ills time-old prediction almost came
true, for he always had said he would
dig his own grave.
Albert Hill, with his 9 years bearing
only lightly upon his genial spirit,
went about his business whistling an I
singing. That's why they called hlni
the "laughing gravedlgger." He lived
at Sf Napa street, was a veteran of
the civil war and a member of the OdJ
