Hardy, it is clear that you have not done this kind of work yourself,
nor are you picturing correctly how it is done.
When one person cuts a sapling another person has to hold it, so that it
does not fall on the person who is cutting it. Then it has to be extricated
 from between the other saplings, gravestones and metal surrounds. While two
people are this way occupied, the other two are pulling vines of
gravestones, trees and the ground. Then one of them carries the cut or
pulled vines away and the other carries away the saplings.

I will send you Hardy some photograph which clearly illustrate the
conditions at the cemetery. When Jerome returns from his vacation, I will
send these photographs to him to be posted on the "ehpes" website.
