From the Departmental Report, it appears that the statement of claimant was not presented for payment before the appropriation and funds from which these invoices were payable had lapsed.\nWhere properly authorized headstones were erected, and a statement submitted within a reasonable time, but the same was not approved and vouchered for payment before the lapse of the appropriations from which it is payable, an award for the reasonable value will be made.\nAn award is, therefore, entered in favor of Graceland Cemetery for the sum of One Hundred Twenty Dollars ($120.00).",
