    2. Deborah Crawford
    3. Letter from the Department of Health to the Town Clerk, Penetanguishene - it has come to the attention of the Government that many of the pioneer graveyards and cemeteries of Ontario are in a neglected condition, and, with the object of making an improvement in this respect I have directed a survey of the graveyards and cemeteries to be made. Will you please supply the information in respect to your municipality, asked for in the accompanying schedule, and when this is completed forward it to Dr. J.W. S. McCullough, Chief Inspector of Health, Parliament Buildings, Toronto. This information to be of service should reach the Department not later than August 1st next. Yours truly, Minister of Health. Date of the letter - April 24, 1929. A reply was sent May 22 1929. Same concerns exist, 81 years later. Thought y'all might find it of interest. Deborah
