Dear Madam:–

The fence on your lot is rusty and unsightly, and the lot and its surroundings would be improved by removing it. Will you authorise me to do this, recut the posts at the corners, remove the other posts and sod up the post holes and cut the number of the lot, wiout expense to you except the old material.

Respectfully yours,

Miss Mary Whitney, Cambridge.

Dear Madam: -

In regard to the addition you desire to your lot, I find that if the fence is to remain there is only room enough to pass between the lots, and an addition could not be sold. If the fence is to come away it is barely possible that an addition large enough for one grave could be sold.

To paint the fence two coats black paint will cost $12.00 or one coat of asphaltum $8.00. The fence needs to be repaired, but this cannot be done permanently without new castings. It can be done temporarily for $3.00

Respectfully yours,

Supt.
