The amount of the contribution made by the Charity
Commissioners will also in the first instance be obtained
under Loan from the London County Council, at 3½ per cent.
and will be repaid within three years, by instalments as the
money is received from the Charity Commissioners.
The expenses of fencing in and laying out the grounds
will be borne by the Committee of the Vauxhall and Carroun
House Lawn and Grounds.
ST. JOHN'S CHURCH GROUND, WATERLOO ROAD.
The maintenance of this ground has hitherto been borne
half by the Vicar and Congregation of St. John's, and half
by the Vestry. In December, 1888, the Vicar, the Rev.
Arthur Jephson, intimated to the Vestry that the Congregation
would be unable beyond Lady-day to continue their
moiety of the cost. The Vestry resolved to accept the entire
maintenance, the Vicar and Churchwardens having conveyed
the ground to the Vestry, to be placed under the entire control
of the Vestry.
The total cost of maintaining the open spaces in the
Parish during the year has been as follows:—
St. John s Church Ground £37 4 8
Old Burial Ground and Stangate
Enclosure 194 10 11
£231 15 7
