Mr.. Kemp Gets Contract.

AT recent meeting of the Directors of
Mt. Olivet Cemetery the contract for the
erection of chapel was awarded to Mr..
Martin Z. Kemp whose bid was s., $50 he
being the lowest bidder Tire work will
be started at once and completed bv
October Ist, 1911.
The plans for the building call for a
handsome structure Hamme and Leber.
the well known architects of York, Pa.
designed the building. 1t will be erected
on the site OF the present vault which it
will cover. Its dimensions will be p
feet by 80 feet on the inside. The build
Ing will be constructed of cut stone. On
the front will be spire with be,fry and
on the rear will be small cross. The
interior of the chapel will be finished in
oak. The sealing capacity of the building
will be about 100. In the basement will
be the present vault and large cellar in
which can be Installed heating plant
The appearance of the building will be
striking and it will be an ornament to the
cemetery. The directors have not vet
decided on the interior furnishings of the
chapel but it is thought likely that chairs
instead of benChes or pews will be pro-
vlded. The style of the building is
Gothic
The need ofa chapel has been long felt
at the cemetery The movement for the
erection of the chapel started last spring
when number of the lot holders signed
a petition which was afterwards present
ed to the directors, asking that such
building be erected. The reason for it
was that in incement weather there is no
place in which serviceScan be held. AS
soon as the PETITION was presented, the
directors began to look into the matter,
and Hamme and Leber were asked to
prepare the plans.
The first plans which were made called
for much lager structure than will be
built. Feeling that it was really larger
than was necessary, the directors instruct
ed them to make them smaller, which
was done. The final plans were approved
at a recent meeting of the directors. A
handsome porte cochere was added for
the convenience of people who have to
drive here in inclement weather.

Argue on Issues.

At a recent session of the Orphans
Court arguments of the attorneys for
the caveators and caveatees in the case
of the will of Mrs. Clara McSherry, wife
of the late Chief Judge James McSherry
were heard.
Mrs. McSherry in her will left all of
her estate, valued at about 500, 900, to
her three children, who were living at
home at the time of her death The
other children received requests of only
few dollars each. George Whtelock,
of Baltimore, represented the cavatees,
and Stoner and Weinberg, of Frederick,
appeared for the caveators, Mrs. Bertha
Wimsatt, Of Baltimore, and Mr.. ].
Roger McSherry, of Chicago.
The caveators submitted six issues,
three of which were accepted by the
caveatees, and three objected to by them,
AS the issues now have been presented
to the court, the first deals with the
mental incapacity of the testatrix, the
second undue influence. and the third
the execution of the will. Another issue
deals with the knowledge and the under
standing of the contents OF the will by
the late Mrs. McSherry. Upon these
issues the Orphans Court will pass, and
the issues adopted and passed by the
court will be sent to the circuit court
for this county. 1t is understood that
the case will be hard fought one, each
side is determined to carry it to the
court of last resort.
