R.K. Carpenter Esq.

Dear Sir

I have yours of Aug 6^th in regard to Mr Rayner's lot.

The entrance cannot well be on the lower side - it must be on the upper side or on the N side better still.

I find on looking at the lot that it cannot be graded w/ much without injury to the lots below, so you better pitch your curbing 2 1/4" to foot.

Respectfully J.W. Lovering Supt^t

J.T. Bradlee Esq Prest.

Dear Sir

A.J. Breed has requested permission to keep a horse & carriage at the Cemetery for the accommodation of visitors.

His success at Forest Hills has induced him to try here & he agrees, if permission is given him to furnish a vehicle &c which shall be acceptable to the Corporation.

The sods on the upper part of Auburn Lake, which I called your attention to a few days ago, can be replaced for $90. ~
