Dear Sir,

I enclose you a note written to Mrs John Blood by myself & rec^d again by me from the dead letter office under date of Dec^r 18^th & since writing it & before its return from Washington, I have written her another addressed in the same way to her at Charlestown, to which I have rec^d no reply .- Ascertaining who was cutting a curb for the lot, I inquired of Mr Hutchinson and obtained your address.

Will you please get the deed from our Trea. Mr Bond (167 Congress St.) and confer with your mother - then with me? If the curb is being cut as Mr Hutchinson told me 16f x 17f x 18f x 18f the deed (which I returned to the Treas^r despairing of hearing from Mrs Blood, & which gives the dimensions of lot as 15 x 20 f) should be corrected.

Please see that the other letter is not sent for to the dead letter office.

Yours resp.y

Dear Sir,

Please report upon the condition of the Cedar Hill Enclosure, belonging to W^m Appleton. I send a blank supposing you might not have the contents at hand.

Please not allude to Mrs Sam. Appleton's or Mrs Peabody's lot-, as they form no necessary part of the enclosure, and Mr A. will not think of providing for them.

The lots 3363, 3364, 3388, 3389 in the rear of Acanthus Path, which I understood you were posted, Curtis has not on the plan. He says he noticed them as being only staked.

Have you ever found my note of Christmas Day?

Yours truly

A. J. Coolidge Sec.y
