The old hearse house on Burial Hill is practically beyond re- pair and something must be done in the way of erecting'a building in which to keep this interesting relic. At present this building is also used to store the tools necessary in the care of the Hill, and, temporarily, the waste gathered by our em- ployee, until such time as it can be removed. The Commission- ers are of the opinion that a new building should be erected on or near the present location, that will give facilities for the proper preservation of the hearse, so that it may be viewed by the many visitors to the Hill, and also furnish the storage room desired.
