THE CEMETERY QUESTION

When the matter of the want of space in *Mount Caroline cemetery came up for dis

cussion the Hon. Mr A. W. Brewin asked: -I it not possible to make use of some other sections in the meantime ?.

The President Section B has already been made into a froe burial place, and wa now have to ung section, but there is not very much space there. It might be pos

ible, howover, that without exhination the Public Works should make some tarr *ces down there.

My Shelton Hooper-I couldn't quite understand the route of Mr Iau Chu Pak 'would you mibi reading it again.

The PresidentThe goar Chinese are mado to mufer."

Mr Shalton Hooper How do they saffer?

Hr Ho Kors Tong-The poor Chinaan bare to carry the coffins to the other and of the city.

Mr Fhelton Hespur-How far is that i Hon. Mr Brewin-About eight milos. Mr Shelton Hooper Who pays for that! Hr Ho Kom Tong-The poor people have to pay t

themselves.

3r Shelton Hocper-Don't the Tung Wah Hospital pay for that?

Mr Ho Kom Teng-No.

The President - don't think the point is 30 serious as Mr. Lau Chu Pak makes cut, because before people from the west went to the Mount Caroline Cemetery, which is further away.

Mr Shelton Hooper-In China proper Is it not a general rule rather than an ex- certion that people have to carry their "dead several miles for interment?

31r Ho Kom Tong-They have not to carry them very far, and there they pay about 83 expenses, as against from $10 to

$15 here.

Dr. Clark-The average intermenta from January 1st to & prillet, 1903, work outat 40 will be held at a time and place to be per month, while from the 1st January one year to the 1st of the next year they work out at 67 per month. I was going to sug. gest bat it might not be unreasonable to allow all bodies coming from Tai Hang and Wongneicheong to be buried in section O. If all bodies from the eastern part of the city were allowed us be buried in section C. it would not at two months, then we should be in greater difficulty than at the present moment.
