Capt D.L. Winsor

Dear Sir,

I omitted yesterday to state
that at Mr J.C. Merrill's request for a number with four
figures to be given him, for the lot of Mr Ward his
brother in law, I gave him 3376. This number was on
a little lot which was sold to Hannah A. Morse, in rear of
888 Poplar Av., and transferred back to the Corpn before she died.
So, if you have put a stake there to indicate ^a lot for sale by that no. please have it
changed to the east half of J.C. Merrill's on Snowdrop Path.

That lot will be then - S.E. half Hen. V. Ward 3376 - N.W. J.C.M. 3487.

Geo. W. Livermore Esq. of Camb. called in again
today, & as he is anxious to settle his bill with the Corpn wishes
you would correct the report of lots 3509, 3510, -- M.H. Livermore
& P.F. Folsom, on Clematis Path, so that they will stand 300
feet each (if that is what they contain, as appears from the book
of Shedd's plan) instead of 326 ft. as before: and instruct the
Treasr to give them a credit of $65 on the bill. I promised him
you would bring it in on Saturday.

Mr Wm C. Murdock wishes you to bring in the bill on the
Vose lot next Saturday, and would like to meet you here
at 12 o'clock. If you can fix the report to include the cap on the
monument, he will pay in the fund so as to be included in this year's rept.
He pd $450 on the Ward lot today.

Truly yours

A.J. Coolidge

A proprietor is asking for a "number with four figures to be given him." Were higher numbered lots more desirable?
