and the stamps.

The charge made to you is the
same made to all other persons
as regulated by vote of the Trustees,
when a deed is sent for record.

It is not a matter of much
consequence. We can afford to
lose it, if you object to pay it:
but I felt it my duty to explain
state the facts to you, and you
can act your pleasure.

Very Respy yours

Sec.y

F A. Worcester Esq
Townsend, Mass.

My dear Sir,

I am anxious
to learn what is the place of residence
of any of the children of the late Aaron
Haskell of Boston, who died in 1839,
leaving a widow Eleanor J. (whose
maiden name was Pitts and her
residence until marriage Townsend)
children, Friend P., Waldo,
and Lydia Haskell. Friend
P. is said to have been employed
for some years on the Bost. & Me.
Rail^d (I didn't learn when) Waldo
went to California -- became poor & wished
to return, & Lydia died.

Aaron Haskell was a native
of [Templeton?] & kept a public house
at the north end of this city.
