Notes for

Dartmouth Cemetery Association

Four of the Directors of the Dartmouth Cemetery Association, Mssrs. Storrs,
Putnam, Neef and Lord after several conferences with each other in groups or as a whole,
and after some talks with the Treasurer of Dartmouth College, agreed among
themselves that they as members of the Association would not press any
objections to the following: The College, represented by Mr. H.C. Edgerton,
wished to use the road leading to the north part of the cemetery as far as
the turn where the road reaches the boundary line between the cemetery
and John K. Lord Hall for the purpose of a service road to Streeter and
John K. Lord Halls, and the College will place posts with a chain and padlock
as a barrier just where the cemetery's road turns north, and also a similar
set of posts, padlock and chain at the north end of the road leading towards
Tuck Drive; the College will also give the Dartmouth Cemetery Association
a right of way from the north boundary-line of the cemetery to Tuck Drive,
and will also keep a hedge, reasonably thick, between John K. Lord Hall and
the cemetery, and further will do a reasonable amount of planting of shrubs
alongside the cemetery road which it is to use as a service road; the College
will attempt to keep its members from using the cemetery road except so far
as the service road is used as described above and it will attempt to keep
in so far as possible the cemetery free from litter caused by the residents
of the dormitory or others connected with the College.

The fifth member of the Board of Directors feels that the College should
not use any part of the cemetery road for a service road but that a barrier
should be placed at the extreme eastern end of the road--as reported by
another director who had talked with Dr. Frost.
