Boston July 23 '/72 [1872]

J.T. Bradlee Esq^r

Dear Sir

Mr Milmore the Sculptor, has informed me that the Sphinx Statue at Mount Auburn is now completed and ready to be placed upon its Pedestal. You and myself are a sub committee with power to direct the removal.

If you will write an order to Col. Folsom to execute this business, I will affix my signature to yours. Col. Folsom should confer fully with Mr Milmore and myself and you before putting it in motion.

Respectfully and truly yrs.

Jacob Bigelow
