Care J E Howe & Co 76 Chauncy St Boston

Dear Sir:

Yours of the 8 inst is at hand. By referring to your order of 1873 for care of Lot &c I find you ordered care - ^$6 - plants ^$4.66. That is, you ordered ^$1.66 more of plants than the usual number, which were placed in your lot ^#1557. When I sent you the order for your signature for care & plants &c for 1874 I did not make any mention of your usual number of plants but of the usual number. The circular stated the price for extra plants. We will place the same number of plants as last year in your lot if you desire as to do so, or carry out your wishes in any order that you may give us. Hoping this will explain the matter in a satisfactory manner

I remain Yours Truly

James W Lovering Supt.
