Mrs. M. E. W. Jones

Dear Madam

I find on refering to my books that there is a bill of $6.00 due on lot 4315 for work done in 1884 and as the Trustees do not permit work done on lots where there are unpaid bills, the work recently ordered can not be done. As soon as the bill is paid the work will immediately be attended to.

Yours Resp'y J. W. Lovering Sup't per F. A. B.
