  2. The Graveyards

    13.01.1938
    There are two graveyards in Clara - one situated on the grounds of the Francisan Monastery, and the other on the grounds of St. Brigid's Convent.
    The Monastery graveyard contains the bodies of the natives for long years past. As the grave-yard was full a few years ago there had to be a new one con-secrated.
    The new one is adjoining the old cemetery and it also is quickly filling in.
