Hon. Ed Lescis, President Cstr Csunciz.
Your Cemetery committee beg leave to report
that they have examined the cemetery records
and find that the annexed schedule il lin &C.
cordance with the records) crorect schedule OF
the amount of interments from January LIST, 1885,
to December 3lst, 1885,
Your committee, however, recommend that .
more explicit record be kept by your cemetery
keeper in future. The book should be properly
ruled, stating the date of interment, name, age,
occupation, place of nativity and color of the
person inferred, together with the time of resi-
dence in city, the lot on which inferred, and the
disease of which the person died, and any other
particular which he can possibly obtain regard
ing the deceased.
Your committee further recommend that an
additional appropriation be made for the pur-
pose of setting out trees and flowers as nothing
so beauties cemetery as Its foliage.
Your committee find that the grounds are in
as good order as can be expected from the
amount of salary paid. The fence is in good
order, and a very attractive iron gate having
been placed at the entrance makes it very con-
venient for pedestrians and vehicles, and is quite
saving to the city. And in this connection
your committee would say that with proper
management an entire iron fence could be
built around your cemetery, section by section
at an annual outlay OF only small amount Of
money for each section each year.
All of which is respectfully submitted
