old road not included in the sweep in his own
Estate. This it is needless to say can only be effec-
ted at considerable expense, & Mr. W. wishes to ob-
tain from the Prop.^s of the Cemetery, a release of any
rights they may have in the old road, upon his
giving them equal rights in the new: & as he
thinks that this alteration in the road will
be an actual benefit to the Prop.^s & their Estate, -
he hopes to obtain their concurrence in his pro-
ject.

Very Respectfully & truly Y.^rs
W^m Sohier -
P.S. Mr. W. has already purchased from the. "Stones"
the fee of the old & new roads - & the town of Water-
town I am told, have consented to the discontin-
uance of the Town way = and I am also informed
that the Prop.^s have no rights to the particular
road now laid out round the corner, but supply
a general right of Passage. _
