And therefore who can select the site ?
:

The relatives enquire of the sexton in which secti on
18827
of the cemetery they require to bury the degessed person,
and they regulate that, I suppose, according to the
cost.
How would they choose the section, arent they shewn (9,78
the regulations that this section costa so much, and that
section so much?
I presume they are shown the regulations of the
cemetery, certainly, and they have pointed out to them
the cost. I always understand the sexton does that.

No, on the ground. They usually go and select the ground

or plan, or is each seotiomarked out on the ground ?
It is not marked out on the ground, Sir; we usually
take on
Cone hill as one section, and another hill as
another section.
And is that described in any document ?
Not so far as I know.

And therefore it comes back to this, that it is left (8535

No, Sir. The sections are arranged previously, and
terraces are formed in different parts of the cemetery,
