Madam

Your note received. The
charge for planting myrtle is $7 for
each full size grave. The laurel
in the border was not done very well. The
trouble is not with the shrub however but
because there is too much shade and
any other shrub put in its place would
act in the same way. Still I would
not advise cutting any of the trees as
that would be much more of a sacrifice
than there would be gain in having a shrub
in the border.

Very respectfully

Dear Sir

Sometime ago you
requested an estimate made of repairs
needed on curbing of your lot #3320.

I find it needs to be reset, secured with
clamps and releaded at joints. The
cost will be $23⁰⁰/100
