Summary

The Peaine Township meeting held July 2, 1990 included an update that a replacement well pump had restored water pressure at the transfer-station project. The board also discussed returning three sets of bones found years earlier at Rustic Villa for burial in a common grave at the Christian Cemetery, and preparations for the August election.

Evidence limits

The newspaper meeting report preserves discussion and intended arrangements; it does not establish that the planned burial occurred on the proposed date.
