[399] 3/

esquire, of Philadelphia, for permission to place upon Lot No. 3744, owned by his father, Bishop Warren, of Denver, Colorado, a granite Sarcophagus having a base of seven feet, three inches by four feet, two inches, with a height of four feet. The reasons given in support of this request, were that although the stone was a large one for a Lot of this size,^^{a considerable portion was the base stone} the base stone covered a much larger ^ ^{& not prominent, and} area that the bulk presented to the eye above it. that the stone was low in effect, which was emphasized by the steep bank which rises some ten or twelve feet immediately in the rear of the spot where it is intended that the stone be placed, and also that the locality was retired one and there were no other monuments near. Voted that the subject be referred to the Committee on Lots, with power.
