Mrs. Jane English, #47 Hanover St., Boston

Dear Madam: -

I find that you signed the papers for the interment of the late Charles T. Greene who was interred in 1872. Complaint has been made by the proprietor of an adjoining lot that this lot is in rather an unsightly condition, and I have thought that perhaps you might be able to give me the address of the heirs, or of some parties interested.

Respectfully yours,

Philip S. Page, Esq., Malden.

Dear Sir: -

Your note is received and the work will go on at once. To leave the eight posts as suggested in your letter would necessitate the cutting off of four more posts, and would add $5.00 to the estimate already given and would be of no use in marking the lot.

Respectfully yours, Supt.

Your note is received.The majority of those who have had lots in this cemetry to dispose of have found purchasers by advertising in the newspapers. The Trustees do not permit any of the officers of the Corporation to do anything in these matters.

Mrs. J. Albert Sullivan, Watertown

Dear Madam: -

I notice a small headstone in your lot without a proper foundation under it as required by the bye-laws. If it is intended to have the stone there permanently a foundation should be built at once.

Respectfully yours,
