had arisen whether the Superintendent was authorized to attend
to any business at the Cemetery except by the direction of the
Committee on Lots, in each specific case, and that said Committee
were unwilling to assume any such duty of detail.

Upon motion of Mr Read it was

Voted that the Committee on Lots be requested, at their dis-
cretion, to instruct the Superintendent to attend to and perform
the necessary work at Mount Auburn.
