THE PANTHEON VIEW COMPANY—a CORPORATION compose !of Augusta people owns a
large tract of land whic’i is now being developed into a MODERN. PERPETUAL ('ARE, PARK-PLAN
CEMTERY in one of the most elevated and beautiful parts of Augusta, and invites votiraid in giving it an
appropriate name. READ ON and LEARN about AUGUSTA’S NEW (’EM ETEIiY.
LOCATION:
Situated between the COUNTRY CLUB on
the East, WHEELER ROAI) on the South and
HIGH LAND AVENUE on the West, this u ig
nificent expanse of Park-Woodland approach
ing one hundred acres in extent—sloping gently
down the descent for half a mile towards LAKE
OLMSTEAD, looks down on the LOWER CITY
and it most ideally located as a RES TIN G
PLACE FOR THE DEAD.
ENTRANCES:
About four minutes walk from the car line on
Walton Way, at the intersection of Monte Sauo
Avenue and Wheeler Road, will be located the
MAIN ENTRANCE., designed especially and in
keeping with quiet taste and modern Arcuitec
ture. And then, on Highland Avenue—being
one of the well-graded and popular drives ar.. and
Augusta—will be another specially design
ed ENTRANCE. All of these prominent
T 110 ROITGH F A R E S afford pleasing
approaches to THE NEW CEMETERY. Enter
ing the PARK from the Main Entrance one will
have a pleasing view of a HOLD SPRING and
attractive SCENERY graced by winding
WALKS and DRIVES. From the Highland
Avenue Entrance the beautiful SIXTY THOU
SAND DOLLAR MAUSOLEUM stands out In
its attractive beauty at the top of a sloping
expanse of well kept lawn and against"a BACK
GROUND OF FORESTRY.
DEVELOPMENT:
The construction of a modern Cemetery is a
real science and only within the last few years
- has the Art of building high grade cemeteries
near to large cities been perfected. Such Ceme
teries are now developed on the PARK and
LAWN PLAN; which, following the natural coir
tours of the land, does away with the old angular
fences, parapets, copings, curbings and enclos
ures—thus leaving Vie STRIKING FEATURE
of the WELL KEPT LAWN as the PREVAIL
ING CHARACTERISTIC. The number of mon
uments. limited, aerhaps to not more than one to
each lot, will reduce the “stone-yard effect” of
the ordinary cerneterv to a minimum in AUGUS
TA’S NEW CEMETERY. . , _
CARE:
There will be no neglected lots in this NEW
CEMETERY, COMMON DBS ERV A TI O N
teaches that after lapse of years the interest of
friends and relatives in their BURIAL LOTS is,
for one reason or another, broken; and, ceases al
together after the death of the care-taker.
NOT SO with AUGUSTA’S NEW CEME
TERY, for scientific provision is to he mam fru
its PERPETUAL CARE as a lawn by ad'quote
endowment of the entire cemetery. Each and
every lot under the operation of this CARE
FUND, which will be accurnulati d in the hand
of an INCORPORATED TRUSTEE, wilt he
perpetually cared for in ages to come. This
HOME OE THE DEAD will he as beautifully
kept as the raosi beautiful HOMES OF THE
LIVING.
