It is understood
that the bodies in Levis cemetery are soon to be moved to new grounds
at the expense of the La Crosse Water Power Co. The work will
probably be done under the direction of Peter Johnson whose experience
and care in undertaking work make him a man to be trusted with such
work.

Moving the
bodies from the old French Cemetary (sic) in Levis began Wednesday
under the direction of Peter Johnson. Some were taken to the
new cemetery on the farm of Ole Johnson, other were moved to Neillsville
Cemetery. The Power Company stood the expense of moving the
bodies.
