Mount Auburn Cemetery

Should you entrust the work to our care, we should guarantee that all the coloured glasses should be of the very finest quality, and that the workmanship should be equal to any other in Ancient or Modern Painted Glass. The pannels could be forwarded together with plans & written instructions, such as would enable any common Glazier to put them in -- Especial care would be taken that the Glass was packed in a way to warrant its safety -- Vessels leave Greenock every month for New York, the carriage would not form an important item and we could have the entire work finished within six or eight months from the time of its commencement.

Should you resolve upon employing us, it would ensure correctness if you would forward pasteboard or paper shapes, the exact daylight sizes of the various compartments. These templets or shapes must be numbered, and your lithograph drawings numbered to correspond -- The shapes of the long perpendicular compartments would only be required above the springs of the Arches with the exact length of the compartments below the springs of Arches marked --

We have only to add that Mr Hay has been consulted in the general arrangement and details of the designs, that he has expressed his unqualified approbation of both, and that should you honour us with an order to execute the work, our chief aim would be to render the Painted Glass Windows of your Chapel interesting and attractive -- We have the honour to be

Sir

Your obedient Servants

Ballantine & Allan
