    2. Connie Brubaker
    3. ----- Vandals have hit the Old Zanesville Cemetery,Wells County, Indiana overnight Saturday, July 15th...I went to investigate the situation and found 46 stones tipped over with about 15 of them broken. These were stones from two foot tall to 8-10 foot tall and the huge wide stones were pushed off their bases. I will have pictures tomorrow to show you the damage. I didn't record the damaged ones, but when I can go back up I will make a list of them and post it on here. (I received the call Sunday evening and had a house full of company so didn't feel I could do it then.) If the vandals can be found the caretaker will prosecute to the fullest and he wants the vandals to have to help re-set and pay for any expenses incurred by the destruction. If the vandals are not found the caretaker is asking for volunteers to help re-set the stones. Or cash donations to help pay for the damages done to the broken stones. I will keep you posted.
