     FIRST BISHOP OF KEARNEY
Bishop Anson R. Graves Returns From Richmond
With That Title

   Bishop Anson R. Graves, who has just returned
from Richmond, Va., as the representative from this
diocese to the general convention of the House of
Bishops of the Episcopal church, was appointed as
Bishop of Kearney. Kearney has been designated as 
the see city of the new diocese of Kearney, which
includes all of western Nebraska, which was 
formerly a part of the diocese of Laramie, but
which was set apart as a separate district at this
convention.
   The bishop will continue to make his home in this
city and in addition this action will make the city
the location of a cathedral and the seat of the
activities of the church for this section. After
a short period of rest the bishop will make a trip
over the district, after which he will go to Florida
with the family to spend the winter. Mrs. Graves
is making a more extended visit in the east.
