each monument firm in Cleveland, and in 
addition to these each lot purchaser was 
given a plan of his lot and a photograph of 
a model suggesting the style of monument 
suited to his lot. 
The map gives the number, price and 
area of every lot, pictures of the models 
for the lots where monumental styles are 
specified, a complete keyed list of the trees 
and shrubs to be planted on each lot and 
be made in accordance with the design 
hereto attached, marked “Exhibit A” and 
made a part hereof, or be a monument ap- 
proximately like dimensions designed or 
recommended by the Cleveland School of 
Art and approved by the Executive Com- 
mittee. It is further expressly agreed and 
understood that no monumental vase shall 
be erected and that the height of head- 
stones shall be four inches.’ ”

DETAIL OF PART OF PLANTING LIST ON PLAN OF SECTION 
23, LAKE VIEW. 
the following quotation from the rules gov- 
erning headstones and monuments : 
“Headstones : The limit of height of 
headstones was fixed at four inches, dressed 
six-inch stub with level bottom ; no foun- 
dation. The price to be $3.00 for setting 
and recording. (Board Record, page 794, 
May 4, 1914.) 
“Monuments : It was also ordered that 
deeds to lots Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 17, 18, 19, 
20, 55, 56, 57, 58, 63, 74, 91 and 92 contain 
the following clause, to-wit : ‘It is express- 
ly agreed and understood that no monu- 
ment shall be erected on this lot unless it 
and detailed reproductions are also given 
of the models for the monuments and of 
the planting list. 
Frederick Green, secretary-treasurer and 
manager of the Lake View Cemetery, 
writes as follows of this new plan of cem- 
etery development : 
The object, of course, is to control the dimen- 
sions, rather than the design of the monument, 
keeping it in harmony with its shrubbery setting 
and yet, not thwarting the inclinations of the lot 
owner, nor injuring the business of the granite 
dealer. 
Except on the eighteen of the thirty-two monu- 
ment lots on this section, indicated on the map 
as restricted, we 1 do not, in the whole cemetery, 
suggest designs for monuments; the general rule

NISHED EACH LOT HOLDER. 
being, that on all lots upon which a monument 
may be erected, the design and location must be 
approved by our Executive Committee. 
This section has been in the market only a few 
weeks, but so far the sales seem to indicate that 
the public is not averse to receiving suggestions 
as to designs for monuments. However, it is 
too early to draw any definite conclusions as to 
whati may ultimately be the attitude of the public. 
It requires a great deal of time and patience to 
model a section in this way, but we are in hopes 
that, notwithstanding any change that may take 
place in the personnel of the management of the 
cemetery, the original design will be preserved 
and carried out. 
The illustrations are from photographs of plas- 
tilina models made here oi* the grounds, during the 
winter season and on rainy days by some of our 
versatile gardeners. 
We of course, do not attempt to sell the monu- 
ment as you will note from the copy of a cir- 
cular letter to our local granite dealers reading 
as follows: 
“Gentlemen: We are mailing to you today under 
separate cover a booklet and map of our section 
23 which is now on sale. We particularly wish 
to call your attention to the provision regulating 
headstones as noted on the map. On the lots
