Dear Sir,

A litte information is needed respecting interments for June & July.

June 5. Was Lucy G. Coolidge int^d in Lot 154 or R. T.? The papers do not agree.

What was the int. of St. B. child on June 26^th - "no return rec^d." There you had no right to make the interment. I said to have been int^d in lot "3346" which would be ^^of Benj. Putnam of Somerville.

In what lot was Sarah Frances Harvey int^d 19^th July. No number appears either on face or back of permits.
