Geranium Path -- nos 1228, 1232. He says Mr
Barker went with him & measured the lots
in regard to sodding, & that he admitted he
was charged for too many feet of sod in
1400 feet -- The bill is 67.45, & he is ready to
pay it.

W^m G. Wise prop^r of lot no. 620
replies to my demand of payment of bill of
$75.00 that he has written you that there was
something to be done & covered by the $75.00 which
is not included within the bill, & that he is only
waiting to know that the same is done to settle
his bill. --

I also send you a bill against me,
which if I understand, is contrary even to the
bad precedent which we have in cases
of 2^d interment in same grave. -- If
I owe for a 2^d int. I should not be charged
with $20. for the 1^st. If for the 1^st, as there was
but one opening of the grave, I should not
be charged for the 2^d--

Please report upon lot no 3768 -- Mary Ann
Scott for perpetual repair. She has paid
her bill today.

Respectfully yours

A.J. Coolidge
