Chap. 177.—An ACT to appropriate thirty thousand dollars for putting the
Confederate plots in Oakwood cemetery in perpetual care. [S B 11]

Approved March 20, 1930
I. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That the

sum of thirty thousand dollars ($30,000.00) is appropriated to place the
seven and one-half acres, more or less, of Confederate plots in Oak-
wood cemetery at Richmond, Virginia, in perpetual care of the govern-
ment of the city of Richmond. Five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) of
this amount must be expended to put these plots of Confederate dead
in the order they should be, and the remainder of the said sum is to be
paid the city of Richmond to forever preserve and maintain perpetual
care of these plots of Confederate dead.

Provided however that this appropriation shall not be effective
until the trust herein imposed is accepted by the proper authorities of
the city of Richmond in such manner as shall be approved by the
attorney general and the governor.

2. It shall be the duty of the governor of Virginia to annually
visit these plots and register his approval or disapproval of the care
of said plots to the mayor of the city of Richmond.
