Rules, Regulations, etc., of Mount 
Greenwood Cemetery, Chicago, 111 . A 
number of progressive rules are em- 
bodied in this book. The cemetery re- 
commends the conveyance of lots to the 
association in trust as allowed by a 
recent act of the Legislature. Grave 
mounds are discouraged, and the fol- 
lowing rule is in force concerning monu- 
ments: “No monument will be allowed 
to be erected which will cover a ground 
space of over seven per cent of the 
area of the lot upon which it is to be 
placed.” Wooden chairs or settees are 
not allowed in the cemetery, and the as- 
sociation advises lot owners not to place 
any chair or settee upon lots.
