Mrs C.C. Little

Dear Madam

I learn that you requested that a broken cross on Lot 1127 might be replaced, the lot being under care of the corporation.

If you have no objection I will order one of the freestone, that being really more durable than, the present stone - Please let me know if you have any choice in the matter.

Respectfully J.W. Lovering Sup^t

Dear Sir

Since lot 139 came under perpet. care, we have an order for some work on it - When it was taken was any work specified on the report?

I find lot 1760 (G.) Cutler on Record Book of Sup^t and it has been properly attended to by me.

Respectfully James W. Lovering Sup^t

Please tell me who is proprietor of Lot 180, also lot 181, and of the Bowditch Monument. I do not know whether some individual or the Corp [spoke?]

Dear Sir,

We are finishing up a new lithographic plan of the Cemetery on a large scale, and, in order to represent lot nos. 323 & 1443 thereon, shall be compelled to put in the granite boundary posts at the expense of the parties interested: and I have requested the Superintendent to have this done.

As I understood you were contemplating some further permanent improvement, I had hoped you would have been in season to save this trouble. However the expense will not be material, and you will be allowed the value of the posts to the Corporation when you are ready to erect a fence.

Respectfully yours

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y
