PREFACE 
 
 In the conduct of our business as funeral directors, the need 
 for a complete and reliable reference manual containing data 
 and information of cemeteries in the vicinity of New York City, 
 has been repeatedly made apparent, both in seeking information 
 for our own use, and for the guidance of our patrons. Realizing 
 that others must have encountered this same need for a work of 
 this character, we undertook its compilation. 
 
 The effort has been made to make the manual authoritative as 
 well as comprehensive. No time or labor has been spared to 
 make it accurate. In the light of our own experience we be- 
 lieve we have gathered much useful and interesting information, 
 and we have sought to present it in a concise and systematic 
 form. The task and expense of gathering the data has been 
 much greater than we anticipated. We have in the main, met 
 with the hearty co-operation of the various cemetery officials, and 
 we are sincerely grateful for the assistance rendered. 
 
 In connection with the subject of cemeteries, we considered it 
 desirable to present a digest of the various laws relating to the 
 cemeteries referred to in the volume, and also pertaining to un- 
 dertakers, embalmers, burials, transportation of the dead and 
 decedents' estate. We, therefore, enlisted the aid of Mr. John 
 Edward Ruston, whose peculiar qualifications as a legal specialist 
 in these matters render him particularly able to know and pro- 
 vide the information most necessary and valuable to undertakers 
 and the public generally. We are indebted to him for the ex- 
 cellent article he has contributed. 
 
 In presenting our Manual we ask your indulgence. We have 
 put about two years of painstaking labor and considerable money 
 into gathering and printing this information, but to err is human, 
 and should any errors or omissions exist, we shall deem it a kind- 
 ness to call our attention to it. We trust our labors have not been 
 in vain and that the Manual will prove itself of real and lasting 
 value.

 of all the cemeteries within about fifty miles of New York, their 
 location, the best way to reach them, official prices of plots and

 ment Makers, a list of State Associations of Undertakers and 
 Embalmers, a list of names and locations of all liospitals, 
 morgues, coroners' offices, and burial permit offices in Greater

 Finally the book contains a careful compilation, by Mr. John 
 E. Ruston, of the laws of New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts 
 and Connecticut relating to cemeteries, undertaking and em- 
 balming and the transportation rules governing shipment of 
 bodies by common carriers, tlie administration of estates of 
 deceased persons and the burial of soldiers and marines.

 Burial of Husband and Wife — There is a bit of sentiment at- 
 tached to the burial of husband and wife, the idea being 
 they should lie in their graves in the same relative position 
 they stood before the altar at the time of their marriage. 
 Therefore, the wife should be buried on the right side of 
 the husband, as you enter the plot and face the monument. 
 
 RAILROAD RATES. 
 
 The railroads having terminal facilities either in or connected 
 by ferry witli New York City ]ia\e established rates for parties 
 and special cars. These railroads include the Central Railroad 
 of New Jersey, Delaware, Lackawanna iJt Western, Erie, Long

 The New York Central Railroad operates cars specially de- 
 signed for funeral parties, which are attached to regular trains, 
 running from the Clrand Central Terminal or the ir)r)th Street 
 Station of the Putnam Division. Or a special train will be run, 
 made up of the car and an engine.

 h.iving special equipment, running from the Grand Central Ter- 
 minal or the Harlem River Station.

 fares or tickets, with a minimum value of $25.00 This charge is

 companies at the present time, but are subject to change at the 
 option of the railroad companies. 
 
 METHOD OF COLLECTING VETERAN'S BURIAL 
 EXPENSES. 
 
 Allowed by the State for the burial of Soldiers, Sailors, 
 Marines, or their Widows. 
 
 This law (see page^^) states that some person must be desig- 
 nated as the proper official to administrate this fund, usually 
 some officer of the Board of Health of each County. 
 
 In Greater New York at present Mr. J. G. Tate, Room 32 on 
 
8 FAIRCIIILD CEMETERY MANUAL. 
 
 the 3rd floor in the Department of Health, 55th St. and Gth 
 Av., New York City, has the matter in charge. 
 
 In case of the burial of a soldier, sailor or marine, the widow 
 must appear before Mr. Tate, or in case of the burial of the 
 soldier's widow, providing her marriage was prior to 1890, the 
 next of kin must apj^ear in person, together with the undertaker 
 and a member of the G. A. R. Post or V. S. W. V., or other 
 military organization or a friend who knew the deceased in life. 
 Eacli one must make and swear to an affidavit that the deceased 
 had insufficient funds to defray the burial expenses and had no 
 insurance on his or her life, and present the government's " hon- 
 orable discharge" or widow's pension papers, together with a 
 transcript of death, with the imdertaker's bill which shall not 
 exceed $50. 
 
 These affidavits, transcripts and discharge papers are then 
 forwarded by the official in charge to the Comptroller who for- 
 wards to the undertaker a cheque, together with the " Discharge 
 Papers." 
 
 OWNERSHIP OF CEMETERY LOTS. 
 
 We have been led to the conclusion that few people fully 
 understand the priucijiles of owncrsliip in Cemetery Lots. 
 
 Each cemetery gives evidence of ownership, in the form of a 
 deed or formal receipt, which deed or receipt constitutes the 
 outward evidence of the book records of the particular cemetery. 
 
 The by-laws, rules and regulations contained on their books, 
 form part of the contract. The mere possession of a deed or 
 receipt from a cemetery does not necessarily constitute owner- 
 ship. The real ownershij) of a cemetery lot is governed by tlie 
 book records of eacli cemetery. 
 
 It is wise, therefore, that heirs take up at once the new 
 owncrsliip of a cemetery lot, upon the death of its former owner. 
 Cases have occurred where this matter has been put off so long 
 that it became impossible to prove ownership and, therefore, to 
 secure the further use of tlie lot. 
 
 In the ease of certain religious cor])orations, the right of 
 burial is denied to all wlio do not die believers of, or subscribers 
 to tlie jiartieular form of religion or creed endorsed by tlie organ- 
 ization which controls the cemetery. This is particularly true 
 
FAIRCHILD CEMETERY MANUAL. 9 
 
 in the cases of Catholic cemeteries, which are governed and con- 
 trolled in each case by the church itself, which under many 
 decisions of the court has been held to be the sole judge as to 
 the right of burial. 
 
 Cemetery lots are not taxable nor can they be reached by 
 creditors for debt under judgment or through court proceedings. 
 It is usually true that lots are indivisible, except when the con- 
 sent of the owner and the corporation is obtained. 
 
 Another point of misunderstanding is rights of a husband or 
 wife in a cemetery lot owned by either. A lot standing in the 
 name of the husband, on his death descends first to his children 
 or to the husband's brothers and sisters or father and mother, 
 never to the wife, nor has the wife any dower right or control 
 over the lot, except that she has the right to be buried beside her 
 husband. Likewise, a lot purchased in a married woman's name, 
 will on her death, go to her children or to her brothers and sisters 
 or her father and mother, never to her husband, he having, how- 
 ever, right of burial therein. 
 
 It is a very simple matter at any time to place on the books 
 of your cemetery, the names of those whose burial you desire in 
 your lot. In that manner you will preclude trouble for those who 
 have a right to be buried there, and prevent burials that you may 
 not wish to have made in your lot. 
 
 OUT OF TOWN UNDERTAKERS. 
 
 Particular attention is called to the fact that you should always 
 use a special width casket and box when making interment in 
 Holy Cross, Calvary or St. Raymond's Cemetery. 
 
 These groimds were surveyed allowing a certain number of 
 inches to a grave and when your box exceeds that special width, 
 you encroach on another grave in a plot, which is sometimes im- 
 possible, and at all times impossible in the " Single Grave Sec- 
 tion." 
 
 In Calvary and Holy Cross Cemeteries, this special width is 
 24 inches; in St. Raymond's, 2G inches. 
 
 If your casket is ordered from a wholesale house of Greater 
 New York and you specify " Calvary " size you will probably 
 save much annoyance and your family the loss of the use of a 
 grave. 
 
 An asterisk * opposite each of the above cemeteries calls 
 attention to this note.

 Casket Progress 
 
 The National Casket Co. has always 
 stood for progress — progress for the casket 
 maker and progress for the Funeral Director. Its 
 long line of achievements includes practically every 
 forward step made in the industry during the past 
 quarter century. 
 
 National Caskets, because of superior material, 
 staunch construction, and appropriate designs, repre- 
 sent the best value obtainable. 
 
 To spread the news of the great advance made in 
 burial methods and the manufacture of caskets and 
 funeral furnishings, is the object of the advertising 
 campaign we are conducting in magazines of general 
 circulation. Our announcements go into millions of 
 American homes. 
 
 Every advertisement bears this statement : 
 "We sell onlv through tuneral directors."

 This cemetery is located on Queens Av. near 23d St., 
 FLUSHING, Long Island, N. Y. Before the formation of 
 Greater New York, it was owned by the Town of Flushing and 
 used for a burial place for the unknown dead of that town. 
 
 It is now owned by the City of New York and is under the 
 control of the Board of Charities. 
 
 No burials have been made for twelve years but the City 
 intends to use it for a general potter's field. This movement, 
 however, is meeting with much opposition from tlie residents 
 and business men of the vicinity who hold that it is a detriment 
 to business and real estate values. The outcome of this contro- 
 versy is as yet unknown.

 This cemetery is not as old as Trinity Churchyard, but its 
 history is interwoven with that of Trinity's, for, as is well 
 known, St. Paul's Church was built to accommodate Trinity's 
 increasing congregation. It was during the year of 17G3 that 
 it was decided to erect a new chapel and in 1766 this church was 
 opened and at the time was considered the finest church building 
 on this continent. 
 
 From the time of the dedication of the Church, records of 
 interments are found of the well-known persons of those days, 
 although for many years the Trinity Churchyard appears to have 
 been the more preferred burial place.

 Interments — Are permitted to lot-owners only and tlie charge

 The establishment of this churchyard dates back to the 
 origin of Trinity Church, which was the first authorized Protest- 
 ant Church in New York. During tlie month of May. 1007, a 
 charter of incorporation was granted to the Church by Lieutenant 
 Governor Fletcher. In this charter the first mention of the 
 cemetery is found. It reads as follows : " And that said church 
 together with the cemetery or church yard thereunto adjoining 
 may forever hereafter be dedicated and consecrated to the public 
 worship and service of God, according to the Rites and cere- 
 monies of the Protestant Church of England." 
 
 It appear tliat at first the regulations regarding tlie use of 
 the cemetery were loose and unsatisfactory ; for tlie following 
 year (1(508) this record appears: "After the expiration of four 
 weeks from tlio date hereof no negroes be buried within the 
 
FAIRCHILD CEMETERY MANUAL. 163 
 
 bounderies & Limits of the Church yard of Trinity Church, that 
 is to say in the rear of the present burying place & that no 
 person or negro whatsoever do presume after the term above 
 Limited to break up any grounds for the burying of his Negro 
 as they will answer at their perill & that this order be forwith 
 published." 
 
 From this time on, accounts are found of the burials of 
 many of the noted personages of those times, such as Rev. Wil- 
 liam Vesey, the first pastor to Trinity Church, Lord Lovelace, 
 and many others.

 Casket Company, certain cemeteries and many prominent imdertakers, 
 has become a specialist in matters relating to undertakers, embalmers, 
 burials, cemeteries and decedents' estates. 
 
 GENERAL STATEMENT. 
 
 The proiDcr burial of the human body is a common-law right. 
 The immediate duty of burial devolves upon the husband, wife 
 or next of kin of the deceased, or upon the person in whose house 
 death may occur. The right of selecting the burial place, or of 
 determining upon the final disposition of tlie body, rests in the 
 husband, wife, or next of kin of the deceased. The courts 
 ordinarily will not interfere with the determination of such per- 
 sons in this particular. It has been held that the deceased him- 
 self may by his will determine upon and provide for the dis- 
 position of his remains. 
 
 Every person is entitled to a funeral in accordance with his 
 station in life. The expenses of a funeral, and of the burial 
 or disposition of a body, may be a matter of contract, but when 
 not determined by contract, the undertaker is entitled to be paid 
 a " reasonable " charge based upon the decedent's rank and 
 station in life, although it may afterwards appear that the estate 
 of the decedent is insolvent. It is a recognized rule that an 
 executor before the grant of letters, may pay funeral charges, 
 and even dispose of property, so to do, and must bury the 
 decedent in accordance with his station in life, and the amount 
 
 181

 Laica — Otncrul Statctmnt. 
 
 of the estate left behind him. Whoever pays such charges is 
 entitled to reimbursement out of the funds of the estate, as 
 the estate is ultimately liable for the reasonable expenses of 
 burial. In most states these charges become eitlier a preferred 
 debt of the estate, or are considered and paid as administration 
 charges. Generally speaking all matters incident to a proper 
 burial are embraced in the funeral charges. In some states the 
 expenses of the last illness are included. The copy of the verdict 
 of a coroner's jury, mourning for the family of the decedent, 
 and a moderate tombstone, have variously been held to be proper 
 charges, where the estate was solvent. 
 
 Since the earliest times the bodies of deceased persons have 
 brrn disposed of either by cremation or by burial. The ancients 
 buried their dead in elaborate tombs and sepulehers. The early 
 Christians buried their dead in catacombs. With the establish- 
 ment of the Christian Church it became a custom to bury tlie 
 (had in the land surrounding the various churches. 
 
 The modern cemetery is a matter of evolution. Cemeteries 
 were first established by the eastern nations. They are known 
 to have existed from time immemorial. The most ])ieturesque 
 are to be found in Turkey, in the neighborhood of Constantinople, 
 where they comprise vast tracts of cypress woods. The first 
 western nation to set aside a cemetery of the modern type was 
 France, which, about ISOi, established the famous cemetery 
 known as Pere la Chaise, located in Paris. 
 
 The cemetery of to-day has been held to be a public place. 
 It may be created by the dedication of land for the burial of 
 the dead, and by distinguishing it as such from the adjoining 
 land. When a cemetery is so established it is usually free 
 from taxation. 
 
 There are several kinds of cemeteries, to wit : jirivate or family 
 cemeteries, municipal cemeteries and corporate cemeteries. In 
 the early colonial times, and even in later years in the rural dis- 
 tricts, it was customary for each family to have its own ceme- 
 tery, or for families to club together and set a]>art certain land 
 to be used in common for the burial of the dead. The estab- 
 lishment of cemeteries by the act of a municipal government is 
 common in some localities. Cemeteries, however, are more com- 
 monly to be found as established and maintained by corporations, 
 either ns a mutual semi-eleemosynary institution or as a purely 
 business enterprise. 
 
FAIRCHILD CEMETERY MANUAL. 183 
 
 Laws — Ocneral Statement. 
 The matter of burials is governed by the individual laws of the 
 several States^ and as the cemeteries set forth in this volume are 
 located in the States of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and 
 Massachusetts, the various laws of these States are hereinafter 
 separately considered. 
 
 DECEDENTS' ESTATES. 
 
 The distribution of the estates of deceased persons is always 
 governed by will, if there is one. If, however, the deceased 
 dies intestate, the matter of distribution is governed by the law 
 of the state in which the deceased resided or left property. 
 
 A will in order to be valid must be executed in accordance with 
 the law of the state in which it is made. The laws of the indi- 
 vidual states vary but little on this subject. In almost all states 
 the following requisites must be observed. The will must be in 
 writing. The person making the same must sign his name at the 
 end thereof. The will must be signed and acknowledged in the 
 presence of at least two disinterested persons, who must sign 
 as witnesses at the request and in the presence of the testator 
 and in the presence of each other, and the testator must, at the 
 time of such signature, declare the document to his last will and 
 testament. 
 
 The respective laws of the individual states vary to such an 
 extent with respect to the administration of estates of persons 
 dying intestate, that it is impossible in an article of this nature 
 to enter into an extended discussion of same. For the purpose 
 of indicating in a very general way the statutory provisions ex- 
 isting in the states of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and 
 Massachusetts, the author has tabulated the individual laws of 
 the said states so as to indicate: (1) Who are entitled to a 
 preference in administration. (2) When an accounting must 
 be made by an administrator or executor. (3) The amount of 
 the transfer or inheritance tax to be paid by the various persons 
 entitled to distribution. (4) What debts and obligations are 
 preferred. (5) Who are entitled to distribution of an intestate's 
 estate.

 Distribution of Personal Estate 
 
 If the deceased leaves a child or children, and 
 no widow, the children or descendants take 
 the entire estate to the exclusionjof other 
 relatives. If the deceased leaves a widow 
 and no children or descendants, the widow 
 takes the entire estate to the amount of $2,000 
 and one-half of the excess. If the deceased 
 leaves a widow and children or descendants, 
 the widow takes one-third and the children 
 two-thirds. If the deceased leaves no widow 
 or children or descendants, the parents take 
 the entire estate in equal shares. 
 
 If the deceased leaves a child or children or 
 descendants and no widow, ithe children or 
 descendants take the entire estate to the ex- 
 clusion of other relatives. If the deceased 
 leaves a widow and no children or descend- 
 ants, the widow takes the entire estate up 
 to the sum of $5,000 and one-half of the ex- 
 cess. If the deceased leaves a widow and 
 children or descendants, the widow takes 
 one-third and the children take two-thirds. 
 If the deceased leaves no widow, children or 
 descendants, the parents take the entire 
 estate in equal shares.

 RAILROADS. 
 
 Each railroad has its own special rules relating to the trans- 
 portation of corpses. These rules in each case are governed by 
 the municipal and State laws of the locality from which ship- 
 ment is made and through which transportation is desired. By 
 reference to the laws and rules stated hereinbefore an idea may 
 be obtained of the requirements of each of the four States in 
 which the cemeteries referred to in this volume are located. 
 
 In general^ however, it is required by all railroads that the 
 cost of transportation is the price of one first-class ticket on 
 which is printed the word " corpse," or a minimum charge of one 
 dollar. Each corpse must be accompanied by a person in charge; 
 certificates of the proper authorities must be attached to the box 
 or casket in which shipment is made, or must be presented by the 
 person in charge when required; it is usual in most instances that 
 the corpse must be enclosed in a hermetically sealed casket, espe- 
 cially when death was caused by contagious or infectious disease. 
 Disinterred bodies are usually considered to be in the class of 
 those dead of contagious or infectious disease. 
 
 Upon inquiry at the office of the railroad over which trans- 
 portation is desired, all necessary information regarding trans- 
 portation is easily obtainable. 
 
 FORM OF BEQUEST FOR THE PERPETUAL CARE OF

 EMBALMERS, UNDERTAKERS, BURIALS AND TRANSPORTA- 
 TION OF THE DEAD. 
 
 The Commissioner of Health shall take cognizance of the in- 
 terest of the health and life of the people of tlie State, and of all 
 matters pertaining thereto (Pub. Health L., § 4). He shall be 
 the head of the Department of Health (Pub. Health L., §§ 2, 4). 
 
 There shall be in the Dejiartnunt of Health a Bureau of Vital 
 Statistics for the registration, among other matters, of deaths 
 (Pub. Health L., § 5). 
 
 The Commissioner of Healtli shall prescribe and prepare the 
 necessary methods, forms and rules regulating the issue of trans- 
 fer permits by local boards of health for the transportation of 
 corjjses for burial outside of the countv wherein the death oc- 
 curred (Pub. Health L.. § 5). 
 
 There shall be loc;il boards of healtli and health officers in 
 the various cities, villages and towns of the State (Pub. Health 
 L., § 20). 
 
 Every such local board of health shall make and publish from 
 time to time all such orders and regulations as they may deem 
 necessary and proper (Pub. Health L., § 21). 
 
 Every such local board shall make and keep a complete regis- 
 tration of deaths. Every physician in last attendance upon any 
 person who may die, shall certify the probable cause of death 
 and file such certificate with the local registrar of vital statistics 
 within twentv-four hours after tiie death occurs (Pub. Health 
 L., § 22). 
 
 Every local board shall prescribe sanitary regulations for the 
 burial and removal of corpses, and shall designate the jjroper 
 officer to grant permits for such burial, and jjermits for the trans- 
 j)ortation of any corj)ses outside of the county. The undertaker 
 having cliarge of the corpse shall procure a burial permit from 
 the local officer, with whom the certificate of death has been filed, 
 and there shall be no burial or removal of a corjise until a per- 
 mit has been obtained. When death occurs by reason of a con- 
 tagious or infectious disease the corpse must be enclosed in a 
 hermetically sealed casket of metal, or other indestructible ma- 
 terial before the same may be transported over any railroad or

 upon any passenger steamboat within the State (Pub. Health 
 L., § 23). 
 
 There shall be a Board of Embalming Examiners of the State 
 of New York, composed of five persons, who shall ascertain what 
 constitutes the best test for determining whether life is extinct 
 and shall prescribe the use of such test before embalming, as 
 they may deem necessary. Said board shall from time to time 
 make and adopt rules, regulations and by-laws not inconsistent 
 with law, governing the practice of embalming (Pub. Health L., 
 §§ 290-291). 
 
 Every person desiring to engage in the practice of embalming 
 shall make written application to said board for an embalmer's 
 license. Same shall be accompanied by an application fee of 
 $5, and a certificate of some reputable person that the applicant 
 is more than twenty-one years of age, is of good moral character 
 and has obtained a common school education (Pub. Health L., 
 §§ 292, 293). An examination of the applicant must follow, 
 and if in the judgment of the board the applicant is duly quali- 
 fied to practice embalming of human dead bodies, a license so 
 to do shall be issued upon payment of a fee of $10. The fact 
 of the issuance of said license shall be registered at the office of 
 the local board of health, and said license shall be displayed in 
 a conspicuous place in the office of said licensee (Pub. Health 
 L., §§ 293-294). 
 
 No person shall engage in the undertaking business unless 
 he shall be a duly licensed embalmer and shall have been em- 
 ployed as an assistant to a licensed undertaker continously for a 
 period of at least three years (Pub. Health L., §§295, 298). 
 
 In a very recent, and as yet unreported, decision the Court of 
 Appeals holds the aforesaid three-year provision to be uncon- 
 stitutional, and the law will doubtless be amended in this par- 
 ticular (People V. Ringe). 
 
 Undertaker's licenses shall be issued by the said board upon 
 payment of a registration fee of two dollars (Pub. Health L., 
 §295). 
 
 Each member of an undertaking firm or manager of each place 
 of business conducted by a corporation shall be a licensed under- 
 taker (Pub. Health L.,'§295). 
 
 Such license shall be displayed in a conspicuous place in the 
 office of the undertaker (Pub. Health L., § 295).

 A duly licensed eiDhalmcr actually engaged in his profession 
 as a means of livelihood is entitled to exemption from service 
 as a trial juror upon claiming his exemption therefrom (Jud. 
 Law, §§ 5 to, (535 and 7:20), 
 
 Any person having a claim for funeral expenses of a decedent 
 may apply for the issuance of letters of administration (C. C. P., 
 § 2GG2). ' 
 
 Every executor or administrator shall pay out of the first 
 moneys received the reasonable funeral expenses of the decedent, 
 and the sarae shall be preferred to all debts and claims against 
 tlie decedent's estate (C. C. P., § 2729). 
 
 It has been held that funeral expenses are not to be treated 
 as a debt, but as a charge against the estate of a decedent, being 
 in the nature of an administration charge and entitled to a prefer- 
 ence as sucli (Paterson r. Paterson, 5'J X. Y. 574). 
 
 The reasonableness of a funeral charge is governed by the 
 station in life of the decedent and the amount of his estate. 
 Tlie general expenses incident to death are considered as part 
 of the funeral charges. (The following court decisions bear 
 on tliis ])roj)osition : Paterson r. Paterson ;")'.» N. Y. 574; Wood 
 V. \'an(ltrburgh (> Paige 277; Ferrin r. Myrick 41 N. Y. .'515;

 Allen r. Allen li Dem. 524; Matter of StadtmuUer 110 A. D. 70.) 
 
 An executor named in a will has the power to pay the rea- 
 sonable funeral charges of a deceased before issuance of letters 
 testamentary (C. C. P., § 2(;13). 
 
 ^^llerc the county treasurer acts as administrator, he is au- 
 thorized to ])ay funeral charges before the issuance of letters of 
 administration (C. C. P., § 2(500). 
 
 The surrogate may, by order, direct a temporary administrator 
 to pay funeral expenses (C. C. P., § 2072). 
 
 If the undertaker is not paid within sixty days after date of 
 death, he may apj)ly to the surrogate by petition for the pay- 
 ment of fuiu-ral charges. The surrogate then jiasses upon the 
 \ali(lity and reasonableness of the claim and may make an order 
 (lini-ting the jiayment thereof (C. C. P., ^ 2729). 
 
 If it shall aj)j)ear that no money has come into tlie hands of 
 the executor or administrator such proceeding must be dismissed 
 without costs and without prejudice to a further application

 showing that since such dismissal the estate has received funds 
 (C. C. P., § 2729). 
 
 The real property of which a decedent dies seized may be 
 disposed of upon application to the Court for the payment of 
 funeral expenses (C. C. P., § 2749). 
 
 An executor or administrator of a decedent may maintain an 
 action to recover damages for a wrongful act, neglect or default 
 by which the decedent's death was caused and the damages re- 
 covered, if any, are exclusively for the benefit of the decedent's 
 husband, wife or next of kin, and must be distributed as pro- 
 vided by law, but the plaintiff may deduct therefrom the rea- 
 sonable funeral expenses of the decedent (C. C. P., §§ 1902, 
 1903). 
 
 The body of an honorably discharged soldier, sailor or marine, 
 wlio has seen service, or the body of the wife or widow of such, 
 who shall have died without leaving sufficient estate for funeral 
 expenses, shall be buried at the expense of the county, same not 
 to exceed $50. (Poor Law, Sect. 4.) 
 
 The grave of such deceased shall be marked by a headstone, 
 containing his name, and if possible, the organization to which 
 he belonged, same to cost not more than $15, same to be a charge 
 upon the county. (Poor Law, Sect. 85.)

 tion of the time and places of the four succeeding examinations after 
 the date of the permit. 
 
 5. Applicants who pass the examination will be allowed until the first 
 day of the second succeeding month, after notice of the result of each 
 examination, to qualify as embalmers by the pa3aiient of the examining

 .Ml such bodies should be conveyed in a hearse or undertaker's wagon. 
 L'nless the body is properly eml)almed and disinfected, the hearse or 
 covered undertaker wagon shall be immediately disinfected. 
 
 3. When called to care for a i)ody dying of small-pox, Asiatic cholera, 
 yellow fever, typhus fever, bubonic plague, diphtheria (membranous 
 croup), scarlet fever (scarlatina, scarlet rash), the embalmcr shall wear 
 an embalmer's suit of some smooth material drawn tight at neck, wrist 
 and ankles and tight covering for his hair and ])ut on the same before 
 entering the aj)artnients where such l)ody lies, and remove it immediately 
 upon leaving such apartments, and tiic eml>almer's suit shall be imme- 
 diately disinfected. The emlialmer shall disinfect his hands and face 
 immediately by washing in some good disinfectant, and also immerse 
 his instruments in such disinfectant. 
 
 4. All paraphernalia used at funerals of contagious or infectious dis- 
 eases shall be inuiiediatcly fumigated unless premises have been disin- 
 fected before they were used. 
 
 5. All funerals of bodies dying of contagious or infectious diseases, 
 except typhoid fever, puerperal fever, erysipelas or tuberculosis, are to 
 be strictly private except that the body has been arterially embalmed 
 and j)remises disinfected and permission obtained from the health 
 authorities to be otherwise. 
 
 (i. No fluid shall be injected into any bimian dead body by any 
 emlialmer unless he is sure that the person died of natural causes or that 
 he has obtained permission from the attending j)hysician. 
 
 7. No fluid shall be injected into any hinnan dead body until the 
 embalmer shall have applied at least Ave of the following tests of death: 
 
 I. Tie a piece of string or place a small elastic band around the finger. 
 If life is i)resent the end of the finger becomes a livid color, but no 
 change occurs after death. This test may also be applied, by tying 
 a cord firmly around the wrist and noticing the veins on the back of the 
 hands; these gradually fill up witli blood if life is present; if life 
 is extinct, no change occurs. If this test is apjilied in this way the 
 front of the wrist should be protected by a small piece of board or 
 pasteboard to prevent pressure on the arteries which would shut off 
 all blood supply. 
 
 II. Hold a cold mirror before the nostrils and mouth and notice if 
 a moisture ajipears on the mirror. 
 
 III. IMace a small light piece of cotton or wool or a small feather 
 over the li])s and notice if there is t.ic slightest sign of breatliing.

 IV. Look for rigor-mortis and discolorations in the dependent parts 
 of the body. If the limbs are stiifened, bending them in true rigor- 
 mortis does away with the stiffness, and discoloration may be made 
 to disappear by changing the position of the body. 
 
 V. Examine the eye and see if it is flaccid. Flash a bright light in 
 the eye and notice if the pupil contracts under the light and dilates 
 when the light is removed. The eye should be kept dark for a moment 
 before making the test. If the eye is not sensitive to light, life is 
 extinct. In death the clear portion in the front of the eye (the cornea) 
 becomes cloudy or milky and the eyeball flattened, and feels soft instead 
 of firm and the white of the eye becomes brownish in color. 
 
 VI. Touch the skin lightly with black hot iron or lighted match or 
 candle and ol)serve if a blister containing water forms, and if the usual 
 pinkish hue appears around the part burned. They do not appear when 
 life is extinct. 
 
 VII. Place a saucer of quicksilver or water over the pit of the 
 stomach, so as not to touch the ribs, and observe if there be any agita- 
 tion of the surface which would indicate a pulsation of the heart or 
 a respiratory movement. 
 
 VIII. Prick with a needle and observe whether the subject is sensi- 
 tive to pain. 
 
 CORONER CASES. 
 
 8. No fluid shall be injected into any body dying suddenly, or from 
 unnatural causes, unless that the consent of the coroner, medical 
 examiner or attending physician has been obtained, and arterial work 
 shall be done in such cases. 
 
 9. From and after October 1, 1907, no embalmer shall inject into 
 any dead human body, for the jiurpose of preserving, disinfecting or 
 embalming the same, any fluid that is not a thorough germicide in 
 the proportions ordinarily used in embalming, that is eight parts of 
 fluid to one hundred and fifty parts of body weight, or that contains 
 arsenic, zinc, mercury, copper, lead, silver, antimony or chloral or any 
 substance or compound that contains either or any of them, or any 
 poisonous alkaloid. Except that nothing in this regulation shall apply 
 to the use of the above named substances in any duly incorporated medi- 
 cal college or scientific institution by those having in their legal posses- 
 sion human cadavers intended to be used for the purpose of medical 
 study or other legitimate purposes. 
 
 10. From and after October 1, 1907, no jjerson, firm or corporation 
 shall sell or offer for sale in the State of New York, any embalming 
 fluid (concentrated or bulk) or embalming compound which is not a 
 thorough germicide, in the proportions ordinarily used in embalming, 
 that is eight parts of fluid to one hundred and fifty parts of body 
 weight, or that contains arsenic, zinc, mercury, copper, lead, silver, 
 antimony or chloral or any substance or compound that contains any 
 or either of them, or any poisonous alkaloid.

 of Knibahninp Examiners of tlie State of New York that an embalming 
 fluid or compound is a thorough germicide in the proj)ortioiis men- 
 tioned in regulations nos. 9 and 10 and contains none of the chemicals 
 prohibited in regulations nos. 9 and 10 of tliese regulations, any person, 
 firm or corporation manufacturing enibalniing fluid or compound may 
 submit to the said board a sample of his or its product under the name 
 l)y which it is known; and shall lie known; to be tested and to be 
 chemically analyzed. The Board of ?',mbalming Examiners shall, upon 
 such sui)mission, have made a test of such fluid or comjtound to de- 
 termine its germicidal (jualitics and a chemical analysis and upon finding 
 that the cml)alming fluid or compound meets the requirements of regu- 
 lations nos. 9 and 10, shall issue a certificate to such person, firm or 
 corporation that the said embalming fluid or compound is approved 
 for the preserving, disinfecting and embalming of dead human bodies 
 in the State of New York. Persons, firms or corporations making 
 a])|)lication for such a certificate shall pay one hundred dollars ($100) 
 to cover the cost of making the bacteriological tests and chemical 
 analysis.

 proval of any embalming fluid or compound, it shall be found by a 
 bacteriological test, that the fluid or compound is not up to the 
 standard of the original test, upon whicii the certificate was issued 
 or ujion a chemical analysis, it shall be found that the fluid or com- 
 pound contains chemicals prohibited in regulations nos. 9 and 10, the 
 IJoard of Embalming Examiners shall revoke such certificate of approval.

 out regard to the age of the deceased, and a corpse will not be taken for 
 transportation except there is a passenger with it in charge. The word 
 " Corpse " should be plainly written on the face of a local and each 
 coupon of a coupon ticket. A record must be made of all bodies 
 shipped and carried, on the back of your station and trip reports, giv- 
 ing name of deceased, and destination. 
 
 It will be the duty of agents and baggage agents to see that each 
 burial case is properly marked on " paster," giving date and at what 
 station shipped, point of destination, " state," number and form of ticket, 
 name of passenger in charge and place of residence, with name of agent. 
 If the corpse is destined to a point beyond the initial line, the initials 
 of each road over which it passes must be written on the paster; also 
 the terminal point of each road at which transfer is made with con- 
 necting line, as shown on the couiDons of the ticket. 
 
 You will see that the " Certificate of Undertaker " is properly filled 
 out by him, and the paster is properly filled out by yourself and it 
 securely jjasted to the coffin box before it is put into the car, and the 
 permit remaining you will hand to the passenger in charge of the corpse. 
 
 All this information is necessary to insure the prompt and correct 
 transportation of the coi'pse. 
 
 CEMETERIES. 
 
 Cemeteries may be organized under the general laws of the 
 State, or may be incorporated under a special law, when in the 
 judgment of the legislature, the objects of the corporation can 
 not be attained under the general laws (Const. N. Y., Art. 8, § 1). 
 
 Cemeteries are usually incorporated under the Membership 
 Corporation Law, Article IV. This statute provides the manner 
 of incorporation, organization and management, and governs the 
 rights, duties and obligations of the corporation, its members and 
 lot owners. 
 
 Cemetery lands may be acquired by eminent domain, purchase, 
 gift and dedication. 
 
 The rights and privileges of members and lot owners are fixed 
 and determined by the statutory law, and by the rules and regu- 
 lations of the corporation. As a general proposition a plot can 
 not be transferred after an interment has been made therein. 
 
 The real estate of a corporation organized exclusively for 
 cemetery purposes is exempt from taxation, unless organized for 
 profit, or its officers receive profit therefrom beyond a reasonable 
 compensation for their services (Tax Law, § 4, Subd. 7).

 walks, fences, monuments, structures and tombs therein are per- 
 mitted, and shall be deemed to be for charitable and benevolent 
 uses, and shall not be deemed invalid by reason of any indefinite- 
 ness or uncertainty of the persons designated as beneficiaries, 
 nor shall they be deemed invalid as violating any existing law 
 against perjjetuities or the suspension of the power of aliena- 
 tion (Personal Prop. Law, § \Sa\ Real Prop. Law, § 114a).

 EMBALMERS, UNDERTAKERS, BURIALS AND TRANSPORTA- 
 TION OF THE DEAD. 
 
 The Board of Health of the State of New Jersey takes cog- 
 nizance of all matters eifecting the life and health of citizens 
 (Gen. Stat. Health, §§ 1, 2). 
 
 Said board also constitutes the State Bureau of Vital Statistics, 
 which among other things registers deaths occurring in the State 
 (Gen. Stat. Health, § 2). 
 
 There are also local boards in all municipal divisions of the 
 State (Gen. Stat. Health, §§9, 10). 
 
 Local boards have the power to adopt ordinances (Gen. Stat. 
 Health, § 16). 
 
 Such boards also may prescribe the penalty of the violation 
 thereof (Gen. Stat. Health, § 18). 
 
 Such boards have the power to specify when no public funeral 
 shall be had, because of death from certain diseases, and a viola- 
 tion of such regulations may be punished by a fine not to exceed 
 $50 (Gen. Stat. Health, § 25). 
 
 Such boards also have the power to regulate the burial and 
 interment of human bodies (Gen. Stat. Health, § 29). 
 
 It is not lawful for any sexton or undertaker to act as deputy 
 registrar of vital statistics, nor to issue permits for the burial 
 of the dead (Gen. Stat. Health, § 99). 
 
 County boards of health may adopt rules or by-laws and 
 ordinances to compel the registration of deaths (Gen. Stat. 
 Health, §§ 101-103). 
 
 A Board of Undertakers and Embalmers of the State of New 
 Jersey was created in 1906 (Ch. 219, L. 1906, § 1), and the 
 practice of embalming and undertaking is governed by said 
 statute and those amendatory therof and supplemental thereto. 
 This board has the power from time to time to adopt and approve 
 rules, regulations and by-laws (Ch. 219, L. 1906, § 3).* 
 
 * Although application was made, it was impossible to obtain a copy 
 of the rules and by-laws of said board.

 All applicants for licenses as undertakers and embalmers are 
 required to pass uniform examinations upon questions pertaining 
 to embalming,, the disposition of the human bodies and shipment 
 of bodies of persons dying of contagious or infectious diseases, 
 or any cause whatsoever, in accordance with the rules of the 
 State Board of Health, and upon such other subjects as the 
 board may deem proper (Ch. 219, L. 190G, § 3). 
 
 No person shall engage in the undertaking or embalming 
 business without a license (Ch. 219, L. 1906, § 10). 
 
 In order to obtain a license all applicants must pass an ex- 
 amination held by the State Board and must file an application 
 accompanied by $5, and the certificate of three persons that the 
 applicant is twenty-one years of age, is of good moral character, 
 has had a grammar-school education, and has served two years' 
 apprenticeship with a reputable funeral director (Ch. 219, L. 
 1906, § 4, 5). 
 
 The license when issued must be recorded by the State Board, 
 and must be registered with the local board of health, and dis- 
 played in a conspicuous place in the office or place of business 
 of the licensee (Ch. 219, L. 1906, § 6). 
 
 The said board has the power of revocation of licenses upon 
 the conviction of the licensee of certain offenses and for the 
 violation of the provisions of this act, or of the rules and regu- 
 lations of the State Board (Ch. 219, L. 1906, §§ 7, 10, 11) and 
 the offenses mentioned in said § 11 are punishable by a fine of 
 $100. 
 
 The license issued by the State Board is not assignable, and 
 only one person may conduct business thereunder, except in the 
 case of representatives of a deceased licensee who are continuing 
 the business (Ch. 219, L. 1906, § 8). 
 
 The transportation of the dead is governed by Ch. 156 of the 
 laws of 1900. 
 
 It is not lawful for any undertaker or other person to convey 
 or aid in the conveyance to any railroad or common carrier, to 
 be transported across or within the State, nor is it lawful for any 
 common carrier to accept for transit, or to transport across, or 
 within the State, any human body dead of certain specified con- 
 tagious or infectious diseases, unless the same is enclosed in a 
 hermetically sealed casket, and unless a license of such trans- 
 portation be obtained from the Board of Health of the State,

 and a violation of this statute is punishable by a fine of $100 
 
 (Ch. 1j<;, Laws of I'.tOO, § 1). 
 
 When it is desired to transport by common carrier across or 
 within the State the body of a deceased person, duplicate certifi- 
 cates of death must be obtained from the physician in last attend- 
 ance, or some other physician of good standing, which certificates 
 must set forth the name of the deceased, the names and place of 
 birth of his or her parents, the age, sex, color, nativity and 
 occujjation of deceased, whether married, or unmarried, widower 
 or widow, last place of residence, duration of residence in New 
 Jersey, place of, cause, date and hour of death, and place of 
 interment. Duplicate certificates must also be obtained from 
 the undertaker, stating that the body of said deceased has been 
 prepared by him for transit, as required by law, and shall con- 
 tain an application for a permit to remove such body stating 
 place from and to which it is desired to convey the same, and 
 the name of the person to accompany the body in transit. The 
 giving of a false certificate is i)unishable by a fine of $100 (Ch. 
 I '){•>, Laws of li»0(), § 2). 
 
 Upon filing with the local Registrar of Vital Statistics, one 
 of each of said certificates, said registrar shall issue a transit 
 permit (Ch. ];">•;, Laws of 1!)00, §3). 
 
 \\'lien it is desired to transport by common carrier, from a 
 I)oint without, to a point within or across tlie State, a body of a 
 jierson who shall have died outside of the State, the undertaker 
 or j)erson attending said body in transit or shipping same, shall 
 att.ieh to the outside of the casket, a certificate of death made 
 by the physician, who attended the deceased during the last 
 illness. If such certificate is not so attached as aforesaid, it 
 shall l>e lawful for a common carrier to refuse transportation. 
 If it be inconvenient to obtain such ])hysician's certificate, then 
 any member of a local board of health may, after inquiry, make 
 such certificate. If there be no undertaker's certificate accom- 
 panying such body, and it be inconvenient to <»btain same, one of 
 the members of such board after a satisfactory examination 
 may in a case jirovided for in § 1, grant a transit certificate (Ch. 
 1. ■)('!. Laws of moo, § 4).

 preceding month (Ch. 15G, Laws of 1900, § 5). 
 
 The State Board of Health may make, alter and amend rules, 
 prescribing the manner in which human bodies dead from any 
 cause and intended to be transported, shall be disinfected, em- 
 balmed enveloped or incased (Ch. 156, Laws of 1900, § 7). 
 
 RULES REGULATING THE TRANSPORTATION OF DEAD HUMAN 
 BODIES BY COMMON CARRIERS. 
 
 Issued by the Board of Health of the State of New Jersey under 
 authority contained in Chapter 156 of the Laws of 1900. 
 
 1. The transportation of bodies dead of small-pox, Asiatic cholera, 
 yellow fever, typhus fever and bubonic plague is forbidden except a 
 license therefor is first obtained from the State Board of Health, or 
 from an inspector or officer of said board, and no license for the trans- 
 portation of bodies dead of said diseases will be issued until it is 
 shown that said bodies have been prepared in accordance with the 
 written requirements which shall in each case be specified and made 
 a part of said license. 
 
 When the dead body is not to remain unburied longer than seventy-two 
 hours^ 
 
 2. The bodies of human beings dead of disease not named in rule 
 number one shall not be transported by an}' common carrier unless said 
 bodies shall first have been treated as follows: 
 
 (a) Remove all garments from the dead body and apply to the sur- 
 face a solution of bichloride of mercury prej^ared as follows: one part 
 each of bichloride of mercury and muriate of ammonia to 1,000 parts 
 of water. 
 
 (6) Fill all openings with cotton wool which has first been saturated 
 with the mercurial solution and allowed to dry. The cotton should be 
 used dry and be firmly packed.

 Your Shipping Instructions 
 
 Will be attended to ^without delay if you are a 
 member of the Guaranteed UNDERTAKERS' 
 CO-OPERATIVE SYNDICATE (Incorporated) 
 
 The credit of every member of this organi- 
 zation is guaranteed by the Syndicate, so that 
 whenever a member asks a brother Funeral 
 Director to attend to transfer work for him 
 there will be no delay in making advance pay- 
 ments, looking up references or establishing 
 credit, thus saving time and eliminating worry. 
 If a member is delinquent in his payment for 
 exchange business, the Ciuaranteed Under- 
 takers' Co-Operative Syndicate, after receiving 
 due notice of his default, will in thirty days pay 
 all adjusted claims in full, provided such claims 
 do not exceed ^(300 in any single case. The 
 organization is incorporated under the laws of 
 Wisconsin, its capital is fio,ooo, and it is 
 bonded for twice that sum, making a solid 
 financial wall to support its claims and guar- 
 antees to the subscriber. 
 
 The names of members are printed monthly 
 in a Journal which is distributed to 20,000 
 undertakers throughout the United ^tates and 
 Canada, all of which tends to concentrate with 
 each member desirable shipping business from or 
 to his locality. In addition to guaranteeing his 
 credit and giving him national publicity twelve 
 times a year, each member is also entitled to 
 price lists from other members, showing in ad- 
 vance just what their transfer work will cost ; 
 and a telegraph code for minimizing the cost of 
 transfer messages. This code book alone will 
 in a short time save enough in telegraph tolls 
 to more than pay the cost of membership. The 
 book is not for sale but is the properly of the 
 Syndicate, and is loaned to subscribers for use 
 during the life of their membership. 
 
 Membership Fee, $10.00 per Year 
 
 Applications for Certificate and Identification Card should be 
 addressed to

 A writing machine— a complete condensed billing machine and

 w^ith more than double the life of ordinary pinion bearings. 
 
 Many features employed elsewhere as attachments are inbailt. vital, integral 
 parts of the L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter, and, with the free, easy, but abso- 
 lutely precise operation of ball-bearings throughout, are big points of superiority

 Nature's Own Method 
 
 By H. S. ECKELS 
 
 NA IT'RF. never makes a mistake. Her laws 
 are absolute and their workings inexor- 
 able. Omniscience has provided against 
 all contingencies and whatever of progress man 
 has made has been by applying, and not 
 altering, these eternally fixed laws. The 
 more nearly, therefore, we have been able to 
 approach Nature's methods, the more abso- 
 lutely scientific our work has been. Until very 
 recent times men believed that Nature and 
 Science were at variance, but this feeling was 
 born only of our lack of perception or conception 
 of Nature's processes. The first step that the 
 funeral director took towards placing his profes- 
 sion upon a scientific basis was when he realized 
 that arterial embalming was the best, and I 
 may say the only, method of permanently pre- 
 serving the dead human body. When he began 
 to realize that the embalming fiiiids after death, 
 to secure proper distribution, must follow ab- 
 solutely the course taken by the blood while 
 life existed, the first step was taken. He was 
 at least appro.iching Nature's own methods, 
 and since Nature's way must be the best, the 
 nearer he got to it the greater was the certainty 
 of his success. 
 
 .Arterial embalming, like most other scientific 
 processess, has passed through a number of 
 successively improving eras. One by one, the 
 arteries have been picked up and their capa- 
 bilities tested. 1 have done much of this re- 
 search work myself, and in the thousands of 
 bodies that have passed under my hands have 
 met almost every possible conceivable obstacle 
 that an undertaker would encounter. 
 
 The net result of this experience has been 
 that in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred I 
 now am using the axillary artery in preference 
 to the carotid, the brachial, the radial, the 
 iliac, or the femoral. With instniments de- 
 signed for the purpose I have found that 
 through the axillary artery it is possible to in- 
 ject the fluid directly into the arch of the aorta, 
 the beginning of the systemic circulation in life, 
 thus absolutely taking Nature's own method. 
 At the same time I drain blood by way of the 
 axillary vein, which is picked up through the 
 same incision, directly from the superior vena 
 cava, the great blood reservoir of the upper 
 portions of the body and the receptacle into 
 which Nature empties all of the veins which 
 Ic.td from those portions of the body which it is 
 desirable to beautify for funeral purposes, i. e.. 
 the face and the hands. 
 
 The superiority of the axillary over the 
 brachial and the other arteries empfoye<l before 
 the discovery of the axillary method are many. 
 .Among them may be enumerated the fact that 
 but one incision is nccessikry to secure a vein 
 
 as well as a sufficiently large artery and that 
 in the most obscure portion of the body, lioth 
 the veins and the artery lie very near the sur- 
 face and are easily accessible and readily 
 located. The operation is cleanly, modest and 
 free, so far as 1 can discover, from every ob- 
 jection which has been effectively urged against 
 cither the carotid, the femoral or the iliac 
 arteries. 
 
 .Another advantage of the axillary method is 
 that since practically all embalming fluids give 
 rigidity to the body, if any other method is 
 used the director is apt to experience very 
 great difficulty in properly posing the body in 
 the ."casket. Where suitable instruments are 
 used in the axillary artery, it is easy to fold the 
 arms exactly in the position they should occupy 
 and to have them remain in place while the 
 fluid is being injected and the blood drained. 
 The construction of the implements not only 
 permits, but even facilitates this. I'he use of 
 the trocar to stab the heart is a relic of by-gone 
 times and should not be resorted to by any 
 cmbalmer who wishes to be considered scien- 
 tific. It makes re-injection of the fluid excep- 
 tionally difficult, if not absolutely impossible, 
 and besides isapt to have a very horrifying effect 
 upon any member of the family who may insist 
 upon being present during the operation of 
 embalming. Vou need never lock a member of 
 the family out of the room when the axillary 
 method is used. 
 
 The instruments used in the Eckels-Genung 
 Axillary Method consist of a set of three 
 blood-tfraining tubes, one for children and two 
 for adults, together with plungers fitted with 
 hard rubber cut-off and rubber tubing, also a 
 set of improved .irterial tubes with hard rubber 
 cut-offs. Full instnictions for practicing the 
 Eckels-fienung Axillary Method are given in 
 a valuable book edited jointly by Charles A. 
 (jenung. former President of the New York 
 State KmlKjlmers Association, .ind myself. 
 The book consists of 250 pages, morocco bound 
 and profusely illustrated. The price of the 
 instruments is #7.50 a set ; the price of the 
 book is $_\.^o. A special reduced price has 
 l<een made f<ir the book and instruments com- 
 bined of f 10.00. 
 
 On receipt of request from any responsible 
 undertaker who will address me at 1933 .Arch 
 Street. Philadelphia, I will be glad to send a 
 set ol the instniments. together with the book. 
 The method is to l>c studied and the instru- 
 ments used on three or four bo<lics. If they 
 then are satisfactory, the money can be re- 
 mitted. Otherwise they can be returned, and 
 I will pay all express charges both ways. 
 
ASSOCIATION OF AMERICAN CEME- 
 TERY SUPERINTENDENTS. 
 
 In 1886, a few well-known cemetery superintendents, led by 
 the late Charles Nichols, conceived the idea of forming an Asso- 
 ciation of American Cemetery Superintendents, on broad enough 
 lines so that all cemetery officials would be eligible and have 
 equal rights and privileges in building up an organization that 
 would be educational, as well as to better the condition of ceme- 
 teries, both in management and appearance. 
 
 After considerable corresponding, about twenty-five men repre- 
 senting the leading cemeteries, met at Cincinatti, Ohio, in Oc- 
 tober, 1887. At this meeting the Association was organized 
 and the present constitution and by-laws were adopted. 
 
 Since then with the view of attaining its beneficial purposes, 
 annual meetings are held affording an opportunity of discussing 
 the best cemetery methods, and records of these deliberations 
 are sent to all interested in cemeteries, throughout the country. 
 
 During the twenty-one years of its organization, the Associa- 
 tion has increased its membership and the effects of its mutual 
 educational purpose may be seen in almost every city of the 
 United States, where there is a prosperous cemetery located. 
 
 It is safe to say that the Association's influence is now fully 
 recognized, since its printed reports on cemetery work are sought 
 by libraries and institutions of learning and is known to be the 
 oldest of the societies conserving the landscape gardening and 
 rural art, in this country. 
 
 Although the work the Association has already accomplished 
 has been very satisfactory and receives the support of the fore- 
 most cemetery workers, as well as commercial and professional 
 men, it is still hoped that its influence will extend to every ceme- 
 tery in America and in this way prolong and extend its usefulness. 
 
 The constitution and by-laws of the Association in brief, are 
 as follows: The object of this Association shall be the advance- 
 ment of the interest and the elevation of the character of the 
 cemeteries of America. 
 
 All officers of cemeteries, who present proper credentials at 
 the annual meeting to a committee appointed by the president, 
 
 283 
 
284 FAIRCHILD CEMETERY MANUAL. 
 
 Cemetery Superintendents. 
 
 are admitted to membership, entitled to vote upon all questions, 
 and to elect the officers of the Association, who are a president, 
 vice-president, secretary and treasurer and an executive com- 
 mittee of five members; the president and secretary are members 
 of said committee and all other committees. These officers are 
 all elected in open meeting by ballot, during the last session of 
 the second day's meeting. The time and place of these meetings 
 are determined at a meeting of the previous year. The Associa- 
 tion has power of electing honorary members, who are privileged 
 to all discussions, but have no vote. The constitution may be 
 amended by a two-thirds vote of members present and the presi- 
 dent has power of filling all vacancies which may occur during 
 the year. 
 
 At all meetings, the usual business proceedings are as follows : 
 Roll-call, addresses, reports, communications, reading and dis- 
 cussing of papers, election of officers, nnfinislied business, new 
 business and adjournment. 
 
 Membership fee is $1.50 and the annual dues are $3, payable 
 in advance; if dues are not paid for three consecutive years the 
 member's name is erased. Membership certificates are prepared 
 by the secretary, signed by the president and countersigned by 
 the secretary, then given to member upon payment of fee and 
 dues.

 lowing officers:

 That old customer who needs your services in New York or 
 that case to be sent to New York needs consideration as to whom 
 you will trust with its details. You want to feel that your patron 
 is being so well treated that you will have nothing to apologize 
 for in the man that represents you. At the same time you want 
 to be sure you are treated fairl3\ 
 
 Our facilities for this service are unsurpassed. 
 
 Our large livery contains the finest hearses and coaches, landaus, 
 bus, covered and open wagons, etc. We are centrally located 
 with four offices connected by a telephone switchboard with an 
 operator in readiness every minute of the day and night. We 
 have thirty-three employees including six funeral directors, day 
 and night embalmers, woman assistant; all the modern equip- 
 ment of the finest quality. 
 
 These things considered with our twenty-five years experience 
 and the highest reputation should give assurance that you will 
 do wisely in trusting any work in Greater New York to our 
 establishment. 
 
 We are giving satisfactory service to many out-of-town funeral 
 directors, and are sure if you join the list that your only regret 
 will be that you did not do it before. 
 
 Correspondence is solicited.
