sibility necessary for us.

Last year the charge for care
on each lot was $12. = $24. besides
$5. for myrtle on Mrs Kinmouth's,
& $7 on your mother's --

My impression is that you had
better pay the bills for care of lots,
& planting myrtle, & leave the
other bills completed with the
monument & sodding, if you
think necessary.

We do not like to neglect so pro-
minent lots, & presume the pro-
prietors, when considering the matter,
would feel the same aversion;
but they must not find fault
with the Corporation for neglect, if
no evidence of their wishes can be
gathered.

I enclose a blank order, which if
you sign & return ^^{will be} all right.
Please give me the name of Mrs K's husband in full.

Yours Respy.

Dear Sir,

I cannot find the evi-
dence, & do not remember, that I have
written you stating the conclu-
sion of the Com^ee on Lots as to
the am^t which the Corporation re-
quires for the perpetual guaranty
of your lot no. 170 -- .

Lest I have neglected to do so,
I here state the sum fixed upon by them
five hundred dollars. --
$500. --

Respectfully yours

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y
