W^m Brigham Esq^r Ex^or A.W. Fuller

Dear Sir,

Will you as Ex^or please take notice that lots nos. 1 + 1556 (H.H. + A.W. Fuller) in the Cemetery require atten-- tion which the funds at the disposal of this Corporation will not allow. There are but $200 in each case and no guaranty was given for complete and perpetual repair. The Com^ee on Lots have directed me to say that the Corporation have kept the lots in order to the extent of the income, but there are certain defects in the curbing or fence & which ought to be remedied before further more exten-- sive repairs are made. Capt Win-- sor, our Sup^t can acquaint you with the nature of them. I have also written Mr. Jona. Howe, as am of the Ex^or of H. H. F.

Yours very respy.

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y
