VERSO:

It was votedsuggested by Supt. Storrs that $350, of our funds of $500, given
by Mrs. A. K. Hardy for the care of her husband's grave,
be refunded to Mrs. Hardy, as she complained that
our care was inadequate. She intends to supplement
our care by other help. The Supt. has found it
impossible this past summer on account of
trouble in getting labor to do all he [moted] in
care of the grave

It was voted that the Treasurer be instructed
to refund $350 to Mrs. A. K. Hardy, on account
of her cemetery lot.

The meeting then adjourned.

Frederic P. Lord, Secretary.

RECTO:

Hanover, N.H
November 2, 1942.

COPY of Resolution of the Directors of the Dartmouth Cemetery Association, which
was sent to Mrs. Gilman D. Frost, wife of the late president of this Association.

Dr. Gilman Dubois Frost, a Director of this Association since 1908 and its
President since 1922, died on October 8, 1942, and this Association finds itself
greatly at a loss in his absence and in the loss of his interest, devotion and
valued counsel in the care of the Dartmouth Cemetery. Throughout the thirty-four
years of his directorship and the twenty years of his presidency of this Associa-
tion Dr. Frost has given the cemetery his intelligent and continuing attention;
he has frequently inspected the grounds to make certain that they were in good
condition, aiding, advising and assisting the Superintendent on his duties of
regular care of the cemetery. He has given advice in regard to our financial status
and he has given much thought to the difficult problem of endowment and the finding
of sufficient funds to carry on the work which he felt was needed.

The cemetery has been fortunate indeed in having had Dr. Frost as a Director of
its controlling body.

In this inadequate and formal fashion the other directors wish to express their
debt to the able and kindly member who has been forced to discontinue his services
in the only way such an end could be effected.

Signed by the
Directors of the Dartmouth Cemetery Association.
