E. M. Stiger Esq^r New York

Dear Sir

Yours received with $37⁰⁰/100 enclosed for which I send you receipt. In regard to the ivy you could have an English or Japanese ivy growing on the stone without a trellis. The price would be $2⁰⁰/100 It would work better however to plant the whole grave with myrtle. The expense of that with perpetual care would be $17⁰⁰/100.

Very respectfully James W. Lovering Supt pr J.C.S.
