Messrs Holmes & Rugg.

Dr Sirs

I have been expecting to hear your price on the coal & should be glad to know, as I am now prepared to buy the following amt. For Mt. Auburn Cemetery 18 tons Furnace Coal delivered in Yard of Engine House, 45 tons Furnace Coal delivered in cellars of Greenhouses or in Greenhouse Yard, and 10 tons stove coal at Superintendent Office.

In addition I will buy for myself 12 tons furnace coal & 6 tons range coal delivered in the cellar of house. This will have to be carried in a short distance as bins by windows are full.

Yrs truly J.W. Lovering Sup^t

Dr Sirs

Please have a profile made of the line indicated by the dotted red line on map enclosed on same scale & from same datum line as profile of Part of Spruce Ave recently made. I should like to have the height taken on pegs occasionally as it will probably be desirable to make some future [attealing?]

Please send us bill for same in a day or two.

Respectfully J.W.Lovering
