of 4 per cent. per annum for 40 years, for the purpose
of forming a new cemetery. Mr. Corbally thought they
could not borrow on better terms, and he thought it
would be well to close with the Economic Company at
once. Mr. Jackson moved that the offer of the Economic
Company be accepted. Mr. Corbally seconded the
motion, suggesting that it should be left to the executive
committee to carry out the arrangements with the com-
pany. The motion was agreed to. The other business
