PARK AND CEMETERY. 
494 
have been developed for cemetery 
■purposes, while the remaining ground 
has been cleared up and is used as a 
quiet woodland park. 
In the improvement of the grounds 
it was found advisable to fence the 
entire property. At the entrance a 
pleasing gateway and piers of weath- 
ered field stones have been built. 
An interesting feature of the ceme- 
tery is the use of the eastern por- 
tion as a park. Walks lead through 
picturesque woodland. An outlook at 
a high point gives a delightful view 
of the Naugatuck valley. 
Altogether about $50,000 has been 
spent in the work of creating a beau- 
tiful cemetery. 
Tlie Hillside Cemetery Association 
is purely a benevolent enterprise.

The association has no capital stock 
and is for no other purpose than to 
improve and care for the grounds. 
Every lot and single grave receives 
perpetual care, the entire proceeds 
from the sale of lots now being set 
aside for that purpose. When the 
cemetery becomes self-supporting it 
will, to a large extent, become self- 
developing.
