Geo. Albree Esq Pittsburgh, Pa.

Dear Sir,

We are preparing a new catalogue of the lots and proprietors in the Cemetery. I have been informed that your brother John made such disposition of his estate (the residuasm) as to carry his lot no. 129 (which is real estate) to you.

The only evidence one has of title to a lot should appear upon our record and this always made in such cases as this by reference to the original will or the record. I can get at these here. But if you wish it to appear as it should upon the deed, you will send me the deed which I will return by mail. Please also enclose $3, the charge in the matter.

Yours Resp.y

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y

Capt. D.L. Winsor

Dear Sir,

In making a more thorough revision of the plans, & by striking from the catalogue all ^numbers of lots said to be located (yet unsold) where the location is obviously impracticable, we obtained the following numbers for your use, which you can apply to lots made up and that must be sold in that form, as well as to lots sold: --

238, 239, 279, 284, 341, 342, 344, 344, 373, 374, 450, 456, 531, 536, 537, 567, 576, 579, 589, 763, 2532, 2936, 2960, 3012, 3037, 3038, 3081, 3554, 3599, 3600 -- = 30 numbers.

All the above are exclusive of numbers recently reported by you.

Resp.y yours

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y

Dear Sir,

Please send the items who you gave the Doctor, if you returned a copy; if not I will send to him for the note.

I wish information of the location of the following numbers for the catalogue. I will give a list, & insert any that I happen to know, & lots are unsold. You will remember that you were to locate them for sale, & have probably done so. Please state the contents of each.
