33 School St. Boston Nov. 22/60 Mr. T. H. Safford

Dear Sir,

Will you please enclose Mr. Raymond's bill which I left with you as he has called for them. I met Mr. Apple and he insists that he took care of the lot for the years '58, '59 and '60. If that is so, then $2 should be refunded from what the Corporation has received on the '57 bill paid twice.

I wish also you would make out a bill of $15 (I think it was) charged some two or three years since against Mr John [N.?] Brown of Charlestown, for foundation to monument &c.-lot 888- The bill has been lost and I would like another with the date and charge.

Yours truly A. J. Coolidge

Dear Sir,

The Committee have considered Mr Adams note & have returned the papers to me, for settlement.

Will you call and see me this morning, if at leisure, as we are not either of likely to be troubled much with callers -- and let us have an end of this matter, if possible. --

Yours Respectfully

H.W. Sales Esq

Dear Sir,

It is a year & a half since the addition of 309 feet was reported to lot 459, Holly Path. I fear it is left in rather a loose state, as the surveyor does not indicate such addition on the plan, & no deed is made until survey.

If you do not propose to make any extension improvement this Spring, please order some 8 inch posts to be set so as to indicate the bounds, & we will make the survey & deed.

Truly yours

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y
