to the com i munity as a place of burial this was a service to the com munity on the part of the nn gregatlon and at no time was there any charge made for sale of graves or plots i each family of the romimin ity had the responsibililv of caring for their own family plot there are a number of grates of people who were wards the local government residents of the old peoples home or the poor house as
