Mount Auburn Cemetery

that more land has been enclosed than the proprietor is entitiled to, to require him or her to remove the fence from the land trespassed on. They do not necessarily exercise that right, unless the trespass is injurious to the Corporation or to some other proprietor.

In this case, the space between your lot and Mr Bradford's, by reason of this Encroachment, is too narrow at the rear end of the lots: and I am instructed by the Committee on Lots to notify you that they expect the obstruction to be removed. This they have the right to require of the proprietor at his or her own expense. Under certain circumstances, perhaps they would authorize it to be done at the expense of the Corporation. I should like to confer with you on the subject at an early day.

Very resp.y yours A.J. Coolidge

Boston, Oct. 6. 1862 Mr W^m. H. Spooner

Dear Sir,

The Trustees, this day voted to accede to your request so far as relates to your resignation as Gardener is concerned: And that the Treas ^r be authorized to cancel the case with you upon a full settlement of all accounts amounts due from you to the Corporation, and upon a surrender, by you, in good order, of the leased premises.

Truly yours A. J. Coolidge Sec.y Mt Auburn

For Mr Shedd --

Make survey of following : --

If any of them have no stone bounds yet, set the stakes for such and ask the Sup^t to have them put in without delay. --

3599	Moss Path --	Heirs of Martin Bates	Lot contains	2061 ft --
"	"	"	Ornamental Av.	714 [ft]
3629	Halcyon Av.	Chas. D. Gibson	[diagram: triangular plot] ornamentl [Ev.?]	80 [ft]
3638	Galanthus P.	John Goldberg Trustee of of Goddard -- (curbed & ready)		180 [ft]
3643	Hibiscus P.	Jos. A. Holmes	Lot contains --	50 [ft]

This lot has a curb on two sides -- wants a post at north of corner -- Bradford never could give me the survey -- Tell the Sup^t a post should be det. -- Put a stake for them to go by -- [Diagram: small sketch]

459 --	{addition to lot of 309 feet -- (orig. lot only 300 feet)
[459]	{Holly Path --	Heirs of John Suter
3734 --	Rosebay Av.	^W. [edge?] Nathan Tufts Jr. --	Treed lot --	706 ft
748 --	Spruce Av.	Devisees of Chas. Minot	[diagram: measurements]	270 [ft]
3755	Clematis P.	Wm T. Andrews --	552 ft

I understand a 5 ft path goes in at the end of this lot -- stake it, & return me the measures -- a curb is supposed to be preparing.

3775	Deutzia P.	Mrs Emily J. Plympton -- [diagram: measurements]	195 ft

Bradford omitted to survey this because he said it wanted to be located from the base lines --
