19. The whole or part of the costs and charges of

    being given to the satisfaction of the Trustees that

    no person is liable for the payment of such costs and
    charges.

20. Before any work is commenced towards the
    construction of any vault, the plan and specification
    of such work shall be submitted to the Trustees for
    approval, and no such vault shall be allowed to be
    excavated without the express permission of the said
    Trustees, and their approval of the same has been
    obtained.

21. All vaults shall be lined throughout with brick-
    work or concrete, and every coffin in a vault or brick
    grave must be bricked in, cemented, and covered
    with a slab of stone, slate, or iron, and so as to
    prevent the escape of any noxious vapour.

22. All labour, tools, and materials required for
    the construction of any vault or brick grave must be
    provided by the parties applying for the same; and
    if any vault shall require to be reopened for inter-
    ment or otherwise, the materials must be provided by

the party owning the same, subject to the approval
of the Trustees.

23. All vaults shall be kept in good order, repair,
    and condition by the owner or surviving owner for
    the time being, and in case of default by the owner
    in repairing the same, after notice has been given to
    him or them so to do for fourteen days, it shall be
    lawful for the said Trustees to cause all such neces-
    sary repairs to be done; and no interment shall be
    allowed in the said vault until such costs and charges
    have been paid to the said Trustees, together with
    interest thereon, at the rate of £8 per centum per
    annum.

24. All earth and rubbish thrown out when exca-
    vating a vault shall be removed by the person who

    ment has obtained a burial-warrant, as provided for
    ordinary burials.
