Geo W^m Bond Esq

Dear Sir,

Capt. Winsor says that you have requested him to sell two old lots belonging to the Corporation. I presume you mean those contained on your annual report nos. 567 & 592. --

Lot 567 on Indian Ridge Path belonged to Sam^l S. Curtis, which he transf^d to the Corpⁿ Nov. 1, 1853 for $100. -- The number has been applied to a lot in another part of the Cemetery & such lot has been sold. The land which is nearly identical with old 567 on Indian Ridge, as I find by plan, is shown by the record to have been sold on the 12^th of July 1864 as lot 3493 on Rosebay Av. to Mrs B.C. Clark for $360. But there are 480 feet in lot 3497 while 567 contained but 300 ft --

Lot 592 was on Mayflower Path (as then named). This ^^{with the tomb} the Corpⁿ bought June 14, 1862 of James Phalen for $215.

The land has since been graded, & if not already sold as some new lot near the junction of Ash Av. with Fountain (on Ash) very soon will be. The locality is probably ^^partly in the rear of lot 3608 cor. of Fountain & Ash, & partly covered by lot 3608 -- which was sold, to the heirs of Eli Jones for $2 per foot.

If the Horticultural Society have shared a second time without right in the sales, it is probably not worth while to disturb it now.

Very truly yours

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y

This certifies that we have examined the books and accounts of the Treasurer of the Proprietors of the Cemetery of Mount Auburn, for the year ending December 31, 1864, and have found them correctly kept and properly balanced, with satisfactory vouchers for all payments charged. _

The Certificates of Stocks and other evidences of property were found in accordance with the statements in his accounts.

In the Fund for Repairs there appears to be a balance due him of six hundred and fifty four and 46/100 dollars, and there is due from him in general account eighteen hundred and ninety-six 28/100 dollars.
