S. T. Snow Esq

Chair. Comm on Lots.

Dear Sir

Please find below a sketch of Lots
4333 and 4334, bought (but not yet paid for) by N. P. Whitney and his
[diagram of lots] son in law Geo. [Nupick?]. These lots were
sold without passageway & the sale
has been approved.

This leaves next to the Mound avenue
side a border of 10 ft. I consented to make it this width
as I left no passageway between the lots, so that I lost no
more land in borders & passageway than if I had sold the
lots to separate parties with a passageway.

Mr. Whitney has learned that in some cases small
spaces left have been sold as small lots, and he
decidedly objects to having one on the corner of Spruce &
Mound Ave. I have told him that we can make no change
in the deed, and that he has as good a title to the
border as the owners of other lots, still he does not feel satisfied.
I suggested to him to purchase the 10 ft width as ornamental
