Capt. D.L. Winsor

Dear Sir,

Mr E.K. Roberts, of Boston had his brother Alfred deposited in the Receiving Tomb Aug 9, 1864, & has rec^d notice of expiration of the 4 mos.-

He wishes a little further time to select a lot, & will do so, if the snow leaves so as to afford him an opportunity. I have told him, that $ 1.25 per month would be charged him extra to be deducted out of the am^t to be refunded.

Yours Respy

A.J. Coolidge Secy

P.S. Williams left two plans here on Saturday for you.- or rather two views of same plan - I should think.

Dear Sir,

I have ^^had a new Report made upon the four lots of yourself and others, and have submitted them subject to the Comon Lots, who have directed me to inform you that the Corporation will assume the contract for perpetual repair of these lots for $1200.-- The by laws do not permit the assumption of one of the guarantee contracts for less than $300 for each lot of 300 feet.

If you shall conclude to accept the offer, I will wait upon you at any time to draw the necessary papers.

Yours Respectfully

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y

Dear Sir,

I send you the instruments to be executed by yourself, and others in the matter of endowing lots 1875-8 in-- clusive, in Mt Auburn.

I marked in pencil the way the paper should be executed. You can rub out my pencil marks, or write over them, and I will erase them.—

I did not know whether Mr Forster's residence is Somerville or Charlestown, & left it blank.

When the parties have signed, I will help you through with the rest.

Truly yours

A.J. Coolidge Sec.

Capt. Winsor,

Dear Sir,

Will you, if you have time in the morning, fill up and bring in a Report upon lot 1397 Asclepias Path, Sol. Sargent, for Perpetual Repair?—

I wish also the inside measures of the Cutter, Fay & Thompson lots on Laurel Hill. Mr Shedd has not got them, but says you have them. And if you have your diagram of irregular lots in such shape as to bring them in and clear obstructions I should like it.

I will try to give you a report upon the Interments.

By the way (privately) if Lewis Jones has not taken away that August order of interment, please get it of Mr. Safford, & bring it in. It will not alter the situation of matters with Jones.

Respectfully yours,

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y
