"Cemetery lots", section 10^th, mean "Lots in the said cemetery"
expressed in line before

"Said cemetery" means "The cemetery now held by
the Mass. Horticultural Society."

Which means The cemetery which they sold
to the present corporation
under the act of the Legislature,
and nothing more.

As to "trusts, powers" &c the Horticultural Society
had none to convey, having exhausted all they had, in
purchasing the land for $10,000.

As to the "enlargement" of the cemetery this is well
explained by Mr Loring . It is not named in any
connexion with the Horticultural Society, but like "embellishment"
&c. simply relates to the mode of using the funds.

I am satisfied without further legal advice, but
consent to consult Mr Fletcher if the committee desire it.
In that case the two previous arguments should be
submitted to him as judge
