HOLDERS CALLED.
There IS again some dissatisfaction among the
lot owners Of the Columbia Harmonial ceme-
terry. on the Brentwood road, in the county,
which for years has been one of the principal
cemeteries for the colored people. This ceme-
terry was formerly owned by a company, the
last survivor being Mr.. John F. Cook. Some
lew years since iOt-hOlders complained that the
proceeds OF sales ETC., were going into the hands
OF one man, that the grounds were not being
agreed to account for % the money that had cams
into his hands and 10 turn over the books, etc.,
10 board of trustees, and thereupon q board
was elected among the members, being John
II. Brooks, Arthur Lewis, VIM. Wormley and
DIR. +. j. Snadd. The lot-holders are again COM
planning that nothing has been done to i'm
prove the condition of the cemetery; that the
trustees have made no report and that they
(the lot-holders) are unable tO learn the condi-
ton OF the financial affairs of the company.
Consequently a number OF them, Carter A.
Stewart and others, have called u meeting of
the q lot,h9ders for Monday night next at the
such action as may be deemed necessary.
