Price of Guides

In relation to the price according to Mr Spears account there was an alteration.

He thinks that Fred paid as high as seventeen cents, wholesale^^{and retailed at .25} and he Spear paid twenty cents, and retailed them for 30 cents. T. H. Safford

On receipt of the above I requested Mr Safford to see Messrs, R. & R. & [?] them as to their price for selling out. their answer to him is enclosed— C.W.F. Superintendent

Apr. 9 1873

John T. Bradlee, Esq. Prest.

Dear Sir,

The supply of Guides which have hitherto been kept on sale by the Gate Keeper is exhausted.

I think it very desireable to Mt. Auburn, that they should be kept on sale.

Accordingly I requested Mr. Safford to make enquiries as to the prospect of obtaining more and his letter and that of the owners of the "Guide" are enclosed.

I also enclose a copy of the latest "Guide" and four (4) old ones

Respectfully Yours C.W. Folsom Per E.T.K.
