Records and Books to be kept.
10. The Trustees shall keep or cause to be kept a
book, in which shall be entered from time to time
the number of every lot disposed of for the exclusive

and such lots shall be marked out by pegs in the
ground.
Plan and Record open for Inspection.
12. The record-book and plan of cemetery, when
prepared, shall be open for inspection to the public
any day, Sundays and holidays excepted, between the
hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., on payment of a fee of
1s. The fee for inspection will be remitted in the
case of persons applying for and taking out a burial
warrant.
Burial-warrants to be issued.
13. In all cases of intended interment the person
having management or control of the same shall apply
