Philip S. Page, Esq., Malden.

Dear Sir: -

Your note is received and the work will go on at once. To leave the eight posts as suggested in your letter would necessitate the cutting off of four more posts, and would add $5.00 to the estimate already given and would be of no use in marking the lot.

#1592-S.

Dec. 13, 1888.

Wm. A. Butters, Esq., #151 Munroe St., Chicago.

Dear Sir: -

In answer to your enquiry I find that to put lot #1592 in order it will need to be graded and soded, and the posts at the corners should be lowered to make them more sightly. The cost will be $50.00. There are two stones that need proper foundations under them the cost of that will be $11.20.

Respectfully yours

Dec. 13, 1888.

Mrs. S. S. Fessenden, Malden.

Dear Madam: -

I am very sorry that you are disapointed at not finding the shrubs planted. It rained so during the Fall months that the wood did not property ripen, and I did not think it advisable to do any planting for the Corporation, and such private orders as we had were also posponed until Spring. The matter will have early attention in the Spring.

Respectfully yours,

Supt.
