REPORT OF COMMISSIONERS OF CEMETERIES ROBBINS FUND, SOLDIERS' MONUMENT FUND AND SAMUEL C. BUCKNAM FUND
Arlington, Mass., February 1, 1919.
The Commissioners of Cemeteries, Robbins Fund, Soldiers' Monument Fund and Samuel C. Bucknam Fund herewith present the report of the work done by the Department during the year ending December 31, 1918.
Owing to the epidemic that visited the Town in the latter months of 1918 the number of lots and single graves sold and the number of interments made in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery for the year is greater than that of any preceding year. On account of the conditions existing in surrounding cities and the filling up of cemeteries in or controlled by these cities, the Com- missioners have found it necessary to adopt stringent regula- tions which will prevent residents of the Town buying lots in the Cemetery for the accommodation of non-residents. This practice, while in itself apparently harmless, in many cases works a hardship not only on the innocent purchaser, but also to the person in whose interest the lot was purchased. No citizen should allow the use of his name in the purchase of a lot unless that lot is to be used for his own immediate family. The consent of the Commissioners will be required in cases where interments are to be made for persons outside certain defined degrees of relationship. The Commissioners deem it only proper that this action on their part should be known by all citizens who may have occasion to purchase lots in the Cemetery, or who may be asked to purchase lots in their name for the benefit and use of non-residents.
During the year 61 lots and 46 single graves have been sold, and the gross receipts from the sale of these lots has been $4180. Of this amount $875 has been credited to the Cemetery Depart- ment for grading, corner posts, etc., and the balance, $3305

REPORT OF COMMISSIONERS OF CEMETERIES
turned into the Town Treasury and made available for other purposes. As stated in the report of last year, the wisdom of grading and preparing for sale plot "Q" was made evident, as without this plot it would have been almost impossible to have met the demand for new lots during the year.
The Soldiers' Monument ground and the old Cemetery on Pleasant Street have been cared for by the Commissioners during the year.
