MR. COPP'S COMPLAINT AGAINST THE CARETAKER OF MERTHYR DOVAN CEMETERY. To the Editor of the BARRY DOCK NEWS." DEAR SIR,-I noticed in the Barry Dock JS'ews of last week that there was a complaint against me brought forward by Mr Copp at the last meet- ing of the Burial Board. I fail to see that it should have been brought forward as a complaint. as Mr Copp fully understood that I was only doing my duty and acting according to the printed bye- laws of the Burial Board by refusing to oblige a visitor by searching the register at the cemetery. I merely told that visitor, as I .have told several others, that the proper place to go for information respecting the register is the Burial Board office, for which a small fee would have to be paid. Will you kindly insert this in your next issue, and oblige,—Yours obediently, R. THOMAS, Caretaker.
