Mrs Lydia M. Allen
& Mrs Mary B. Caulk Chelsea, Mass

Ladies,

Will you be so kind, as to send
me word, at once, how you divide lots
3388 & 3389, which are in one enclosure. 3388
is Mrs Allen's & 3389 Mrs Caulks. I
subjoin this sketch and will thank you to
indicate by these figures, which owner the
northerly and which the southerly side. I see
that Mr Coffin's grave is on the north side
of the centre line, and the grave without a
headstone is on the south side.

The lot fronts to the eastward, &
towards Oak Avenue. I have put in
the numbers short of the last figure
which by you adding 8 and 9 where
they belong will show which each owns:
or as you face the headstone, say which the left side belongs to,
& which the right.

As soon as I receive your answer, your deeds will be ready.-

Respectfully yours.

A. J. Coolidge, Secretary

Alvan Clark Esq
Cambridgeport,

Dear Sir,

On the 16^th of Dec^r/63
an order was sent me by Mr Bond, our
Treas^r for a deed (among others) of your
lot, no. 3411, situated on Sumac Path, for
which you paid $150. In his order, he includes
a tomb right which I found from his books,
soon after that date, had not been paid on;
and of course I have delayed mailing the deed.

I understand from Capt. Winsor, our Super-
intendent, that he informed you of the rule re-
quiring $50 additional fee for a tomb privilege - and
now write you, lest you should have been under
some misapprehension. If you do not wish the
tomb privilege, please notify me.writing me. If you do, please
send $50 to the Treas^r, Geo. W^m Bond,
167 Congress St.

Yours truly

A. J. Coolidge Sec.y
