Dear Sir

The gutters of Crocus & Saffron Paths can be paved and graded at an expense of $30 dollars, in addition to the paving stones of which we have enough on hand. I do not know what these cost, but should think they might be replaced for $15 to $20. at the outside.

I will report on levels the first time I get in to town.

Yours respectfuly J.W. Lovering

Dear Sir,

I am informed by our Superinendent that the repairs required to be made upon the lot of the late Mrs Mumford (no 126 Willow Av^e) before the Corporation would assume the contract for perpetual repair, were overlooked by him in the hurry of business last fall, although he had your order therefore.

It has occurred to me that the Corporation can as well receive the $300 and put it upon interest, subject to the completion of the repairs, which can be done in the Spring. If this is satisfactory to you, I will make out the document for it when you say so. Then there will be an ample fund at the head of 1864 to pay the bills of that year, & probably a surplus. --

Yours truly

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y

Dear Sir,

William Dehon Esq, the proprietor of the large lot no. 2337 between Pyrola & Bellwort Paths wishes to take and pay for the lot on the north side of Pyrola Path, opposite to his lot, and situated between lots 218 & 3279, the latter belonging to Edwin O. Tufts. - He wishes it for a friend. I think you said it was engaged to some one else - but if there has been no bargain which can be considered as a sale, Mr D. would seem to have the prior claim, as he is ready to pay for it.

Will you please see to the enclosed internment order - common grave - funeral in Chapel at 12 M. Friday. -

Yours truly

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y
