Report of the Superintendent of Veterans Burials.

Amsterdam, NY, October 30, 1917.

Board of Supervisors, County of Montgomery, New York;

Honorable Sirs;

I hereby tender my report as follows;

I have inspected all the cemeteries in the county since my last report and find that the graves of the veterans and their wives are in good condition.

There have been 12 burials of veterans and veterans wives and 13 headstones have been erected.

I recommend that the claim of the Soldiers Home at Bath, N. Y., for the funeral expenses of one Louis Eisner be not allowed, as I have investigated and found that the claim is not one for Montgomery county.

Respectfully,

C. C. VAN WORMER,
Supt. of Veterans Burials.
