Capt Winsor

Dear Sir,

I have examined the report of lots sold in the hand of Mr Bond, and find you have never reported the lot on Saffron P. to Jos. P. Williams. The "dupli- cate" report which you find among your papers does not correspond with Mr Bond's --

It appears that you first reported lot 3554 on Saffron P. (not the same no. of feet however) to W^m Lowry, & in the next report changed Lowry to Primrose & gave him a new no. ^⁽³⁵⁵⁹⁾ The old number is the one which you appear to have ^^given J.P.W. -- 3554 --

Please add it to Mr B's reports --

Will you bring in a report upon the lot of John C. Tebbetts, 731 Moss P.

Please give Mr Safford the enclosed.

Respectfully yours

A.J. Coolidge

Dear Sir,

I enclose you the contract for lot 1502. When you have signed it -- paid the money top Geo. W^m Bond Treas^r -- 167 Congress, and obtained his signature to the paper, return it to me, and I will have it completed and recorded for you. The next meeting of the Trustees occurs next Monday, and if the paper shall have been returned me before then, I will get the assent of the Board. --

I had hoped you might bring the other matters into the this year's operations.

Truly yours

John C. Tebbetts Esq. New York -- 5^th Av. Hotel

Dear Sir,

I have obtained a report of the Sup^t upon your lot as requested and have laid the same before the Committee on Lots who have given the subject careful consideration, and have directed me to inform you that this Corporation will assume the perpetual care of your lot no. 731, with its monument, fence, soil & everything thereon, for the sum of six hundred dollars ($600.) I do not think this sum high at all. I shall await your further orders.

Very Resp.y Yrs.
