PARK AND CEMETERY.

broader ground. If one looks at the 
passage which Mr. Beaumont referred 
to on p. 192, where the learned judge 
sums up what he had been saying in 
reference to the church building act, I 
think one can see what his true view 
was. He says: “To put it shortly, I 
do not see any difference between a 
gift to keep in repair what is called 
‘God’s house,’ and a gift to keep in 
repair the churchyard round it, which 
is often called ‘God’s acre.’ ” That is 
the ground on which I think this case, 
as I have already said, can be decided 
in favor of the legacy; and I think 
North, J., took the same view. What 
really was the effect of the church 
building act as applied by him? I 
think it was only this: that the legis- 
lature, dealing with gifts for the pur- 
pose of providing churches, and, 
amongst other things, churchyards, 
regarded the persons who were pro- 
viding the money for that purpose as 
charitably disposed. I do not think it 
was anything more than that. I do 
not think he regarded it as an enact- 
ment that the purchase or provision 
of a churchyard should be regarded as 
a charity. He merely took it that the 
legislature, expressing the popular 
view of what would be the disposition 
of such people, treated [75] those peo- 
ple as charitably disposed. He only 
regarded the act as supporting that 
view, and he put it in those words 
which I have read from p. 192. If that 
is so, there is no further question 
about it. It is admited that a gift to 
keep in repair a Quaker’s meeting- 
house would be a perfectly good gift. 
If so, on this view a gift to keep in 
repair a Quaker burial ground would 
be a perfectly good gift. 
I need not go into any general con- 
siderations as to the necessity or as 
to the pious object of providing burial 
grounds. 
The legacy is therefore valid. 
There is one point which I have not 
dealt with, and that is with regard 
to the words “in particular the grave 
of my late wife.” I regard those 
words as nothing more than a spe- 
cial obligation, ancillary to the re- 
pair of the burial grounds, and not 
as a separate trust at all. 
There will be a declaration that 
the legacy is valid, and a direction 
that it shall be paid, with interest at 
4 per cent, to the five members of 
the preparative meeting upon pro- 
duction of evidence of their appoint- 
ment.

^Success of Deming Power Sprayers 
on Public and Private Grounds 
The sprayers used on low-growing fruit trees are often not suitable for tall trees; 
there is, therefore, a great demand for a more powerful and efficient machine, and 
hence the favor with which Deming Power Sprayers have been received. 
Made of best material, substantial and durable; engine and pump are 
mounted rigidly together, preventing lost motion and permitting higher A 
pressure. They have large air-chambers. 
We shall be pleased to furnish particulars, including blue- 
prints, specifications and estimates. We make pumps for 
k. all uses — distributing agencies in principal cities.
