Edw^d B. Oliver 26 Oak St.

Dear Sir,

We are making a new catalogue of the Proprietors and Lots in the Cemetery, and wish to keep a knowledge of the place of residence of each.

Henry J. Oliver who was proprietor of lot 67 died in 1849, and his widow Sarah H. was appointed to represent the the lot. From the papers, I infer that you may be a son. If so, please inform me of Mrs Oliver's present residence & oblige.

Yours truly

A.J. Coolidge Sec.y

Dear Sir

Your favor of the 9^th inst rec^d In 1872 you only ordered Care & no plants for which the charge was ^$5.00, but in 1873 I find your order calls for care & plants and later in the season you gave an order to have the lot top dressed with manure, all of which has been done.

This I hope will explain satisfactorily the increase of price over last year

Yours truly

J. W. Lovering
