Cemetery Committee asked further time to report which was granted. The President reported that he received a telegram from Mr. Rosenstein stating that he could not come for the holiday unless he receives $200.00. The president was authorized to answer the telegram that $150 was the price agreed upon. Mr. Steinmann reported that most all the amount subscribed had been collected with the exception of 3.00 and that they should be charged against their dues and collected by the collector. Under the head of new business the matter of seats for the holidays was taken up for consideration. On motion it was ordered that the price for seats for members be the same as last year, with the charges as follows. First Row $5.00 2nd Row 3.00 3rd and 4th Rows 2.50 5th and 6th Rows 2.00 7th and 8th Rows 1.50 and the remaining 6 last rows 1.00. Moved and seconded that members buying seats for relatives be charged the same price as their own. Moved and seconded that nonmembers be charged $3.50 each for all $1.00 seats of members and $5 for all other seats. An amendment was offered that the last 2 rows 2.50 each for nonmembers and the others 3.00 and 5.00. The amendment prevailed. The secretary was instructed to send out Postal Cards to members stating that the seats can be procured by applying to Mr. Emil Steinmann commencing Monday, September 2, and no seats be sold to nonmembers before the last week before the Holidays. The Secretary was authorized to purchase 12 Prayer Books and to sell them if applications are made.
