Dear Madam,
I sent the bill of $4.00 for care of lot 1145, for year 1868, some time since to C.C. Smith Treasr of Dr Gannett's Society, & he refuses to pay the same, on the ground that the Society has nothing to do with this lot. Mr B.F. White, who has always had direction in the matter of care of late Dr Wm Ellery Channing's lot, has for several years, paid a bill to O'Brien -- our Irish gardener in Cambridge -- of $15.00. I think this bill covers the lot of Geo. G. Channing no 677 & R. Gibbs Channing 678 both containing 900 square feet --
Your lot (1145) contains 250 feet and, what makes the case a disagreeable one, is in one enclosure with the other two: for which reason the lots should be [?] fer by only one gardener --
As Mr White appears to be partial to O'Brien we do not care to disturb his wishes that O'B should take care of the W. E. C. lot. As to your own we can take charge of it if you wish: but they would appear to better advantage if taken care of together.
The bill of $4. for [1868?] is therefor now returned to you for payment. If you desire us to continue care ^for [1869?] you should give a written order to that effect.
Respe.y Your Obt Servt

Dear Sir
In reply to your favor of the 23rd March asking an estimate for putting the Channing lot in order I would say that to paint the fence well & renew the sodding would cost $11000 which would be divided as follows
to lot #677 | (G.G. Channing) | $2700 |
---|---|---|
[to lot] 678 | Heirs R Gibbs Channing | $5500 |
[to lot] 1145 | Mrs Ed. T. Channing | 2450 |
A smaller sum could be spent on painting fence fertilizing sod & grass seed but the result would not be as speedy if as good.
Yrs very truly J.W. Lovering
