The Code of By-Laws contains regulations
for the most part additional to, or explanatory of,
those contained in the act of Incorporation. -

Art. 1

Proprietors and Privileges.

A proprietor holding not less than three hundred
feet of land is a member of the Corporation, and, as
such, is entitled to vote at meetings and to hold a
ticket admitting himself and his household to drive
into the Cemetery. A proprietor holding less than
three hundred feet is entitled to hold a like ticket of
admission, but has not the right of voting. -

Art. 2

Meetings

The annual meeting of the Corporation shall be
held in Boston, after due notification, on the first
Monday in February, in the afternoon. At this
meeting the report of the Trustees for the preceding
year shall be read, also the reports of the Treasurer
and Superintendent. The Trustees for the ensuing year
shall be elected by ballot, and other business specified
in the advertisement may be transacted. If the
Secretary neglect duly to call the Annual Meeting,
a special meeting shall be called in the manner
prescribed in the Act of Incorporation, and said spe-
cial meeting shall be the annual meeting for the year
in which it is held. - -
