Note 93 — INTRODUCTORY REPORT SUGGESTING THE OUTLINE OF A SCHEME FOR EXTRAMURAL INTERMENT.

Reading edition

Twenty years would probably represent at least four times the average period during which the bodies of the poor have been left at rest in many grave-yards of the metropolis. Yet I would willingly advocate a longer term of years as the personal tenure of a grave, if public opinion would sanction the heavier expense which must thus be entailed on the living.
