Definite Action Later.
The petition wa9 acted upon by adopt
ing a motion put by Councilman Martin,
amended by Councilman Jones, to have
the matter referred to the cemetery and
health committees jointly and report
back to council. Mr. Martin's original
motion was to refer the petition to the
c,metery committee alone with powet to
act. In as much as the petition prayed
for the establishment of a mausoleum
In the new cemetery Mr. Mnrtln heartily
accepted Mr. Jones’ amendment to lei
the health committee, of whloh Coun
cilman Allen Is chairman, have a say
so too, and also as the matter was an
exceedingly Important one, have the two
committees report th«lr findings back to
council. Councilman Irvin Is chairman
of the cemetery committee.
Councilman Pilcher offered as a sub
stitute to Mr. Martin's motion a resolu
tion calling for the petition to he acted
upon by a special committee assisted
by the city attorney. The resolution
was voted on and lost.
Outlined Tnelr Plan.
Both Mr. Brand and Mr. Grier were
present and spoke briefly of their plan.
Mr. Brand said that It was only a ques
tion of a very short time before some
place must be provided for the burial 01
Augusta's dead, as all of the present
cemeteries are full. He stated that hu
land was of a desirable size, well sit
uated and convenient to the car line.
Ladies, he said, would have no fear of
visit ng the grounds alone. According
to Mr. Brand the land is also high and
dry.
Home time ago it was announced that
the mausoleum company was attempting
to locate one of Its buildings here. Mr
Grier stated that as long as there must
soon he another cemetery It will tie de
sirable to both the public and the com
pnny to build the mausoleum In the new
cemetery. The building, he said, would
he constructed of granite with marble
Interior at a cost of 1100,000. He said
that every precaution Is taken to have
It thorough.lv sanitary. In the language
of Mr. Grier the mausoleum would he
as safe to the live as to the dead.
In all probability a meeting of council
will be specially called to hoar tne re
port of the two committees on the
Brand-Grier petition, as Mayor Hayne
last night assured the gentlemen that
they should be informed as soon as the
committees report.
