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,

On examination of the Reports of the Superintendent since February 1869, I find the following Lots & additions to Lots represented as paid for, no deeds of which appear to have been made. Will you please advise me whether there is anything in the condition of these Lots which, by the rules of the corporation, or by custom, would preclude the making and delivery of the deeds to the purchasers forthwith?

Lot 179,	(add. to)	Lot 265,	(add. to)	Lot 3125
" 3156,	( " " )	" 3916		" 3928	Lot 3940
" 3956		" 3969		" 3971	" 3979
" 3997		" 3998		" 4006	" 4008
" 4009		" 4011		" 4012	" 4013
" 4014		" 4015		" 4011	" 4018
" 4019		" 4022		" 4023	" 4024
" 4025

I understood from you that the Lots on Gladiolus Path are in proper condition to warrant making the deeds. These Lots, as reported, are Nos 4007, 4016, 4020, 4021.

Mr. Sawyer has just left here for you two large scale Plans. I enclose tracing of vicinity of Alice's Fountain by [?] H.

Respectfully & truly yours,

Sam^l Batchelder Jr. Secretary
