Capt D.L. Winsor

Dear Sir,

Mrs Snow is in while
I write. I have just been to see Mr Ware
who is very willing to do his share
towards the drain on Locust Av^e.
He says he told Mr Austin he was
willing to give $25.00. He now says
if it is necessary, he is willing to
give even thirty or forty dollars.
If Mrs Snow, whom we have put
down at $50. could have her as-
sessment thereby reduced to $40, I
doubt not Mr Ware would pay
forty dollars.

We have made the matter
as definite as it can be or
need be, for all practical pur-
poses -- and I think you
need not wait longer to hear
from the parties.

If we put Mrs Snow at	40.00
Mr Ware [at]	40.00
Mr Hurd [at]	25.00
Mr Davis [at]	10.00
We have [total]	$115.00

something from one other party --
but that I do not reckon on.

I would like the report
on the Ezra Lincoln lot,
if you please.

Yours Resp.y

A.J. Coolidge
