Madam

In regard to your
inquiry as to plants in your lot I
find there is no order to put them
there. There is an order to care for
the lot until counter manded. If
you desire plants I think it would be well
to order them in that way also I enclose
card so that both orders may be on one
card.

Very respectfully

Madam

I find there is no order
to plant white myrtle between the
graves on Mrs Fosters lot.

White myrtle is very scarce and
costs high. It will cost $10 to plant
between the graves as proposed.

If you desire the work done please
inform me.

Very respectfully
