Joseph W. Pattersen Esq

Dear Sir

I have your favor of the 3rd inst, and note what you say in regard to the finishing of the lot. I should agree with you that we ought to share in the expense of filling, were not the price low & fixed low on account of the excess of work in completing over must of our lots. Lots on the avenue just below bring $2.50 pr foot, and it costs $125 to finish at least, making, a total of $1025 for a lot of the same size as you have purchased. I can complete yours at $200. or less, which will only make your lot cost about $2.05 pr foot when finished. Hoping that this will meet your approval & that you will authorize me to complete the lot

I am yours respectfuly J.W. Lovering
