[In pencil:] Not sent

Henry S. [Evers?] Esq

Dear Sir

I send you a plan of the Sturgis lot
#3511 showing the amount of land owned & its position
with reference to the adjoining lots, and on this plan I
have sketched a plan of the catacombs & the vestibule, showing
the amount of land available for the front & sides of tomb.

I enclose a sketch of a tomb containing 16 catacombs, to
which can be added such a design for the front and
entrance as suits you. The parts colored in red represent
the brickwork and then in slate color, the slate shelves on which
the caskets rest, and the divisions between the catacombs.

I think the divisions between the catacombs are best of slate
and the catacomb doors of marble.

I think the entire cost should not exceed $4500 unless the
granite front is more elaborate than the Moore tomb which you
saw. The more difficult place to arrange the grade will be on
the East side toward lot #2761, and on this side some granite
work (dressed) may be made.

Respectfully
J.W. Lovering

I [?] no [?] the lot can be transferred except by ordering the Probate Court.
