hibitionS, the court held that ANY
rule or regulation passed by the
vestry after the sale of the plain
|tiff's lot cannot be made retroac-
tive to cancel and abridge rights
which had become vested in the
plaintiff or her sister prior to en-
actment of the rule"
Judge Gray added, however, ait
is undoubtedly true that the ceme-
terry management can prevent the
establishment Of monuments OF
other structures which would be
offensive to the Sensibilities Of or
dinary persons, or which would
otherwise desecrate the atmos-
Iphere sought to- be maintained.
Holding that ownership Of pri-
vate cemetery lot does not guar
antee its permanency for burial
purposes. the court cited early
Maryland cases to substantiate the
point that such ownership actually
constitutes merely license" to
make interments while the ground
remains a burying place.
It was further pointed out in
Judge Gray's ruling that certain
statutory safeguards surrounding
cemeteries apply only to public
burial places.

Sharply pointed up in the
courts opinion is the widely held
fallacy that church and other pri-
vate cemetery lots, once pur-
chased. are inviolate for all time
against use for any other pur-
Ipose.
They are not-even when occu-

are legally assured Of perma-
