Messrs Rand, Norcross & Bowditch Com. on Salaries

Gentlemen,

The enclosed paper accompanying the report of the Com^ee was originally intended for the inspection of individual Trustees, or of the Board as might be deemed advisable. Circumstances which transpired at the last meeting rendered it unnecessary to present it. I have neither the time nor inclination to revise it. I see nothing which does not fairly state the question.

I am satisfied that my services are worth to the Corporation at least fifteen hundred dollars

Dear Sir,

Please refund Cont. for Pertpet^l Rep. to 2121 finally passed upon and recorded.

By one of the strange anomalies the Corporation charges you for receiving money of you, that is to say - the charge for drawing, getting execution of and recording the contract is $5. which you can remit at your convenience.

Truly yours,

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y
