Dear Madam

The following repairs on Lot #2372 Thistle Path will cost viz;

Grading & sodding Lot about	$40.00/100
Putting Buckthorn Hedge around Lot	30.00/100
[total	$70.00/100

(say seventy dollars). I would suggest a "Japonica Hedge" instead of "Buckthorn" as being prettier & more durable the cost thereof only being $5.^00/100 say Five dollars more.

Yours respectfully Jas W Lovering, Sup't per A.C.

Dear Madam

If you wish to have fence erected around your lot, please give a line to the parties who you are going to have to put the fence up, asking them to take it to Mr. Batchelder 16 Pemberton Square & get a permit to work in the Cemetery. All fences erected here must have the approval of the Committee on Lots, (our Trustees) and it is desirable therefore, I think for you to drop us a line stating what kind of fence you wish to put up & I will get the approval for you.

Yrs Respectfully James W Lovering
