By vote of the Trustees I am instructed to do no work on any lot with all charges for previous years have been paid. As the bill for work on lot 4063 still remains unpaid the lot has not been put in order or cared for thus far.

Yours Resp'y

Mrs. M.H. Kelly,

Cambridge, Mass.

Dear Madam: -

The cost of regrading, enriching and sowing with grass seed both the Hanson and Hazelton lot will be sixty dollars ($60.00) provided the part of the fence now there is first removed.

The stones on these lots need cleaning which will cost seven dollars and fifty cents ($7.50).

I think the beech tree might be trimmed a little without hurting it.

Respectfully yours,

JW Lovering Sup't.

C.W. Dailey, Esq.,

East Cambridge, Mass.

Dear Sir: -

The gardener reports that there are five myrtle graves in your lot which need repairs and two more are open and without myrtle to replant the five graves will cost fifty three dollars ($55.00). Myrtle is so uncertain and at its best looks well but a week or two during the year so that very many proprietors are removing the myrtle from graves and sodding over.

Respectfully yours,

J.W. Lovering Sup't. per [?]

#459-S.

Miss. C.D. Wells,

Boston.

Dear Madam: -

To repair the dead spots of the sod in your lot will cost three dollars and fifty cents ($3.50). The vase should have a foundation under it before being filled. The cost of building [a foundation?] and setting the vase on it will be eight dollars and fifty cents ($8.50).

Mrs. J.F. Tyler,

Mt. Vernon St., Boston.

Dear Madam: -

Your lot needs to be all regraded, enriched and resodded which will cost forty eight dollars ($48.00). The tree between the lots and shrub in the border should first be removed.

The lot would also be much improved by removing the granite border stone on the line of path, which can be done for the old stone.

Respectfully yours,

Sup't.

#[902?]-S.

Mrs. C.F. Cutler,

Dell Ave., Roxbury, Mass.

Dear Madam: -

The cost of replanting the myrtle on the grave in your lot will be five dollars ($5.00). If the myrtle is removed and the grave sodded over, which I think is to be recommended, the [?] will be two dollars and fifty cents ($2.50).

Respectfully yours,
