be disposed of according to our usual custom
It becomes a loosing business to the corporation
to inter them in the "St Pauls Lot", and I
have selected a plot of Ground of no value
for any other purpose which can be bounded
with Corner Posts & made large enough to hold
from 50 [?] 100 bodies and can be called
the "Receiving Tomb Lot" & when interred, they
can be numbered from 1 upwards, and a
regular Record kept at the Lodge as before
This piece of ground is situated back of Mistletoe
Path, and alongside of the Stockade[fence?]
and in the rear of a [line?] of Tombs. I have
shown the [?] to Mr James Cheever who
fully coincides with my views in the matter
and will be able to point out the exact locality
on the new Map. Even if the Board of trustees
should conclude to set apart this valueless land
to be used for the sole purpose of a "Receiving Tomb
Lot" I should advise at the same time to alter
the Receiving Tomb fee to $2500. Returning
within 4 months say $1800if the body is
removed. Respectfully Yours Daniel L. Winsor
