REPORT
of the
Burial Board of the Parish of Camberwell
for the
YEAR ENDING 23th MARCH, 1893.
The Board submits the Annual Accounts as audited by
the Auditors appointed by the parishioners, in which it will
be seen that the receipts exceeded the expenditure.
Messrs. John Andrew Lyon, Joseph John Phillips,
and William Alexander Coote retired from the Board by
effluxion of time.
Mr. John Andrew Lyon was re-appointed a member of
the Board, and Messrs. Horace Graham and Herbert
Edward Ramsey were appointed to fill the two remaining
vacancies.
The Board had under consideration the collection of
burial fees payable to ministers of the Church of England,
and, after much consideration, determined that a circular
letter should be sent to them stating that the Board would
require these fees to be extracted from the books of the
Board by the persons desirous of receiving the same.
The Board have caused the roofs of the chapels at the
cemetery to undergo a thorough renovation, and the defective
slates to be replaced.
Repairs have also been carried out in the Roman
Catholic Chapel, and the other places of worship.
