Dear Sir

I find by referring to our books that your lot was sodded spring of 1871, and it seems to me as if my predecessor ought have made any slight repairs needed by the sod; still I feel ready to do what is fair & will by & improve the condition somewhat.

I find we have an order to top dress at $4 from you, and the repairs & top dressing will I hope make a good sod.

Yours truly J.W. Lovering
