was redone with black granite several years after his death and the words were taken
from the internet.

Arthur E Lunn died 1995

ARTHUR E LUNN

DIED SEPTEMBER 14 1995
BURIED ON SEPT 15
AGED 86.
Arthur E Lunn studied at La Martiniere College, Lucknow
and was an old faithful to his alma mater where he visited 
over the years, his last visit  being 1995 to celebrate the
institution's sesquicentennial during
 Founder's Day September 13. He passed on the 
next day.  Arthur Lunn was Principal of Bishop's School,
Pune.  He later opened 'Constantia Hostel' in Dehradoon' .  The
 pic is from a Hostel Facebook page.  Mr Lunn was not 
Cambrian Hall principal as I had written earlier but served 
on the institution's board for many years.   An old Martinian 
and vice principal of the College for many years, 
Mr Frank D'Souza, also passed away shortly after the 1995 
anniversary. After retirement Mr D'Souza continued to live on 
the campus, first in a residence he was permitted to 
construct near the college infirmary, and later when infirmity 
had set in towards his last few months, stayed in the 
principal's residence. Mr D'Souza was buried in the 
Bandaryabagh Cemetery where the remains of 
Mr Victor Raynor and former
principal, Lt Col HRH Daniel are interred.
The grave lay neglected these past 19 years till a request for a pic
 of the grave from Klyne Aitkins (in Australia) who had been a
teacher under Mr Lunn at Bishop's. Warren Anderson took the pic after
having the grave cleaned as well as possible. Klyne and Warren
also happen to be old Martinians .

What type of Christians control this cemetery?

TINY BRICK CUBICLES: Are these toilets being built?

GARBAGE IS BEING THROWN OVER THE BOUNDARY WALLS

Meera Barrow died about 1990

MEERA BARROW

Meera was the mother of a daughter, Shagun.

DIED CIRCA 1990 WAS A TEACHER AT
ST AGNES' DAY SCHOOL, STATION RD.,
LUCKNOW.

(This is near the north wall at the end of the path directly opposite the entrance. It was sickening to see someone had had a crap, visible in the pic, between the graves. On this visit I'd noticed the boundary wall with a few bricks missing to make it easier for the crapper to climb over.)
