Tinsley delivered the principal address, followed by a consecration by John H. Cox. Dr. J. C. Newby spoke on the association's perpetuity, noting revenues fund perpetual care. The organization, formed November 1901, has begun work, buried neighbors already, and many lots sold with no salaries beyond the superintendent and laborers.
