and the broad expanse of its acreage it is 
second to no other cemetery in the United 
States. 
The officers of the - cemetery, to whose 
good management a great deal of the 
credit is due for its splendid condition, 
are J. H. M. Morris, president ; W. W. 
Locke, secretary and treasurer; Robert 
Campbell, superintendent. 
The iron gateway entrance referred to 
was designed, built and erected by the 
Stewart Iron Works Co., of Cincinnati, 
and while it is less elaborate than other 
installations of this well-known firm of 
iron fence manufacturers, it is exactly 
suited to the purpose. 
The demands of the cemetery associa-

a like improvement, we have secured the 
following specifications from the Stewart 
Iron Works Co.:

height of 8 feet at the posts to a height
