Dear Sirs

No plants were put in the lots (1421 &1705) for care of which you made a deposit, because the funds have not been sufficient. The deposit was made in June 1879 and while it can have been at interest but little more that a year, the expenses of 1879 and 1880 - two years- has been charged to the lot. I do not think the funds are sufficient to keep the lots in good order and provide flowers.

Yours truly J.W. Lovering
