Alfred Winsor Esq

Dear Sir

I learn from our Treasurer that you have already paid once for the grading & sodding &c of your lot No 4065. Why it was not then completed I cannot learn, but I can say in excuse for asking you to give a second order, that the lot was sold & paid for & the order given & paid some months before I became Superintendent, and I do not find on our books any memorandum of work to be done or having been done on the lot. Had I found any memo to finish the lot, I should have done so as I shall now.

Respectfully J.W. Lovering Supt.

Gentlemen

We find upon examination that then is no foundation in Lot 1786 Elm Ave. Geo. Johnson Rep. and we have had no order to build one except that left by you a day or two ago. Please therefore write us definitely where you wish us to build the foundation and erect the cross.

Respectfully James W. Lovering Supt. J.E.C.

Mr. George Johnson Jr.

Dear Sir

In reply to your favor of 28^th with say that owing to the names being different I did not at first trace your connection with the grave #316 in St. John's Lot, but if you have the papers it is all right. Except that but two interments are ever allowed in a public grave & one has already been made, so that it would be necessary for you to make some other provisions in regard to one of the bodies.

Yrs Truly J.W. Lovering Supt.
