Mrs Lydia M. Allen & Mrs Mary B. Caulk Chelsea, Mass

Ladies,

Will you be so kind, as to send me word, at once, how you divide lots 3388 & 3389, which are in one enclosure. 3388 is Mrs Allen's & 3389 Mrs Caulks. I subjoin this sketch and will thank you to indicate by these figures, which owner the northerly and which the southerly side. I see that Mr Coffin's grave is on the north side of the centre line, and the grave without a headstone is on the south side.

The lot fronts to the eastward, & towards Oak Avenue. I have put in the numbers short of the last figure which by you adding 8 and 9 where they belong will show which each owns: or as you face the headstone, say which the left side belongs to, & which the right.

As soon as I receive your answer, your deeds will be ready.-

Respectfully yours.

A. J. Coolidge, Secretary

Alvan Clark Esq Cambridgeport,

Dear Sir,

On the 16^th of Dec^r/63 an order was sent me by Mr Bond, our Treas^r for a deed (among others) of your lot, no. 3411, situated on Sumac Path, for which you paid $150. In his order, he includes a tomb right which I found from his books, soon after that date, had not been paid on; and of course I have delayed mailing the deed.

I understand from Capt. Winsor, our Superintendent, that he informed you of the rule requiring $50 additional fee for a tomb privilege - and now write you, lest you should have been under some misapprehension. If you do not wish the tomb privilege, please notify me.writing me. If you do, please send $50 to the Treas^r, Geo. W^m Bond, 167 Congress St.

Yours truly

A. J. Coolidge Sec.y
