Dear Sir
At Greenwood and I think at some other places or Cemeteries, Hackney Coaches are always to be found in the road or near the main entrance for the accommodation of strangers and others who wish to obtain the best views in the shortest time -- Would it not be for the interest of some stable keeper in the neighbourhood to furnish this accommodation if duly authorized

so to do by the Trustees?
I believe the Stone Farm has not yet been laid out in Avenues &c, though a provisional plan was made by a former Superintendent, paving crooked or winding Avenues -- It strikes me that one broad Avenue made in a straight line from near the Tower to the Winchester Road would afford the best view of Charles River and the surrounding landscape -- narrower paths would be used for the rest of the ground --
Yrs respectfully
Jacob Bigelow
