Dear Sir,

In reply to your letter of March 19^th, would say, that the enclosed information (separate sheet), which has been obtained from Mr. Safford, our Undertaker, is the best I know of or can obtain namely, that the name of the person intered in lot #588 Primrose Path is Mrs. Sarah D. Colburn, and that Hon. Jas. Cheever knows considerable about the circumstances of the [memorial?] of the lot

Respectfully Yours C.W. Folsom Supt

Per E.T.K.

Dear Sir

In reply to yours of April 1^st would say in regard to building tombs, the expense was $873.11 which should probably be equally divided, also expense of setting posts and cutting numbers which was $32.00

The retaining wall is charged as 55 ft long and the cost was $505.83

[diagram: 55ft wall facing lots 4145 (23ft wide) and 4146 (25ft wide) with measurements in between]

I should say the proper shares would be in about the rates
