Mrs W. D. Powell

Dear Madam

About the 19^th April 1880 you sent an order for "Care of lot including rose bushes 3⁰⁰ and top dressing $2⁰⁰. Then about April 23^rd a note was received from you to place some white flowers in the vase Callas & lillies for which you were charged $1⁵⁰ which makes up the bill of $6⁵⁰ as sent you.

In June a note was received with directions to plant bush lobelia all over the grave of W^m D. Powell, and for this a charge of $3⁵⁰ was made. By mistake the charges were not sent all together as was intended.

I hope this will satisfactorily explain the matter.

Respectfully J.W. Lovering Supt.

Will you please advise me, if you desire the lobelia planted this year in the same way as last.
