Wordless Wednesday: Cemetery Expenses

Cemetery Expenses, a photo by midgefrazel on Flickr.

As seen on the wall of a small breakfast place in South Acton, MA, a section of the town report for the year 1872-1873.

Two cemeteries for the entire year, labor, a well dug, and the lumber and nails $112.37. There's a budget, huh?

Neither cemetery listed in the Acton section of Dave Lambert's book. Action taken from Concord in 1735.
