Mrs. James C. Fisk, Quincy St., Cambridge.

Dear Madam:-

I have looked very carefully into the charge for the work on your lot and find that the foundation was for a larger and heavier monument than in the former case. The work was constructed in an entirely different way in accordance with what was understood to be your wishes. If you will see Mr. McArthur when you are here I think he will be able to give you a satisfactory explaination in detail.

Respectfully yours,

Supt.

A.P. Kitching, Esq., #15 Mills St., Boston.

Dear Sir:-

On Sept. 12th the remains of Anna P. Kitching were deposited in our Receiving tomb. The undertaker did not pay the fee, and as this is payable in advance I will be obliged if you will forward me the amount ($20.00) that I may be able to square my accounts for the month.

Respectfully yours, Supt.
