Messrs Shedd & Edson

Gentlemen,

Please send me tomorrow the inside measures to lots 3498 (Cutter) 3517 (Fray) 3518 & 3519 (Thompsons) on Laurel Av^e. I send the plans, on which I wish ^^you to mark the length of inside lines, & the middle ordinates, from which I can make deeds.

Send me also the same for lot 1463, on Thistle Path (Mrs Hemenway's) which contains 790 sq. ft.-

It is laid down on plan, but the exterior measures are given, so as to be no guide for me in describing.-

I shall have to ask you to send to Mt Auburn & survey some of the irregular lots:- [?]} [?]} each other}

Among these I wish

3495	rear of 179 Walnut Av.	contents	168f.
3516	rear of 179 Walnut Av.	contents	65f
3508	rear of 2204 Walnut Av.	contents	87f.

Dear Sir

The cost of releading & resetting the curbing & on lots 3518 and 3519 was $53 beside the foundations which were $57 more (One large & 4 small ones) $110 in all.

This makes 1/2 cost of releading & resetting &c. $26.50 and the care^^$4, plants & top dressing^^$3.50 were $9.50 more on each lot, making the expense $36.00 per lot beside the foundations.

I have received no orders for care of your lots for this year. The price will be $1. per lot less than last year, that is for care, plants & top dressing $8.50 per lot or $17.00 for both.

If you desire us to take care of the lots please sign the postal cards & return.

Respectfully J.W. Lovering Supt.
