The Cemetery Board may convey cemetery lots by certificate signed by the President of the Cemetery Board and countersigned by the Secretary of the Board specifying that the person to whom the same is issued is the owner of the lot described therein by number for the purpose of interment. The said certificate shall give a right in fee simple to the proprietor, his or her heirs, and assigns. The certificate shall then be recorded in the office of the County Clerk.
