TRUST FUNDS
CEMETERY PERPETUAL CARE FUNDS
As the funds have to be written up at the bank at least three times each year, the only practical way of keeping them is in the order of deposit date and bank book num- bers; the older funds at the head and new funds placed each year at the end of the printed lists.
A fund always appears in the same position relative to the others.
Beginning this year and continuing in subsequent years sub-page numbers will be printed to facilitate reference to any particular fund by those interested.
An alphabetical index of the Perpetual Care Funds is kept in the Town House, for quick reference.
