Dear Sir,
Please report Sat-
urday on lot of Jesse Holbrook no [2697]
Central Av. - almost opposite the Bowditch
statue. He says his angel cost only [$10?]
at auction, but the marble men would
make it for less than $1000 perhaps more.
Will you let Fred. look [after?]
these points for me.
See if there is any headstone or [mor?]
lot of Jos. H. Thayer, 221 Willow Av.
gives date & place of ^his death, if so what is [?]
Look at precisely same questions on
Lot 503 Willow Ave. -- Thomas [Haven]
The same question too on lot 798 Elm
Av -- Shepherd H. Norris?
All these were proprietors, and
said to have died, but the records do [not?]
show their death.
Truly yours
John Woods Esq
Dear Sir,
I believe you
have not yet paid the $300
bequeathed to our Corporation
by the late Harriet N. Whitney
for the repair of the lot belonging
to her & yourself -- no 2144.
The Corporation is ready to
receive said sum and apply
it to the purpose indicated.
Respectfully yours
A.J. Coolidge
Sec.y
