Mrs V. A. Shedd Watertown Mass
Dear Madam, I lately made a deed to you as proprietor of lot No. 3058 in Mt Auburn under the name of Mrs Vernon A Shedd.
In making up the register of interments, I have past discovered that the order for the interment of your husband gives him the name of Varnum A Shedd.
Of course one or the other must be wrong. Will you please state, by return of mail, which name is correct, and oblige
Yours truly A.J. Coolidge Sec.y Mt Auburn
33 School St. Boston Alexr Wadsworth, Esq
Dear Sir, I have seen Mr Mann, and sought an explanation of the changes made upon the plan, or rather, required to be made by his mistake in not using the old numbers. He says it was his mistake, which he sought to rectify at the Treasurer's office before the deeds were ordered, but found it was too late.
The number 3013 has been given to what was 537 on Olive Path, and 3054 to what was 2139 (not 2137 as you state) on Hibiscus Path.
As nobody has been harmed, I see no need of going to the Trustees -but simply to erase a location opposite to the old numbers in the catalogue, and put the new number in the plan in place of the old. Nothing else now, of course, can be done.
If you are unwilling to make the change without a vote, please notify me before next Monday, and I will have you authorized.
Truly yours A.J. Coolidge Secretary
