Geo. H. Kuhn Esq

Dear Sir,

In looking over our
papers & records, I find that no
transfer back to the Corporation
was made of lot 473 in Mount
Auburn, as contemplated in
Miss Putnam's will. The
contract for perpetual repair
was executed in Sept. 1862 &
duly recorded, but the record of
the devise of her lot to the Corpor-
ation escaped me at the time,
and I suppose did you too.

If you have the deed, you
can make a transfer, on the page, as
ex^or "in accordance with the provisions of
her will", to the Corporation. If you
can call any day after 12 o'clock, at
your convenience, I shall probably be
in: or I will wait upon you
at your office.

Yours very respy,

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y

Dear Sir,

Some time since
you were apprized of the fact
that your lot in our Cemetery
no 21, on Myrtle Path, had
been accidentally covered by another
lot, for want of bounds or other
mark designating the location of
yours.

We have a new plan rapidly
being engraved and shall soon also
issue a new catalogue, and
we should like to have you select
another location now during the open
season, partly for the reason
above named that our new issue may
be as free from error as possible but
more especially as our most eligible
land is being rapidly taken, which
fact shortens the range for your choice.
Your attention will oblige.

Yours respy. A.J. Coolidge
Secretary
