Your cemetery committee in submitting their report do not think of any recommendation calling for any appropriation other than for the general care of the Cemetery grounds ; and for that purpose we would ask for the sum of two hundred (200) dollars. We would however call the attention of the town again to the matter of the future needs of ground for burial purposes, and would recommend that the selectmen and two others, chosen by the town, be a committee author- ized to purchase a tract of land for a cemetery, without fur- ther delay, as there are but few lots left in the present ceme- tery untaken. Respectfully submitted, ABBOTT S. MITCHELL E. A. MULLIKEN, GEO. H. JACKSON, Cemetery/ Committee. REPORT OF TREASURER OF CEMETERY TRUST FUND.
