Dear Mr Lovering,

My friend Mr Geo. Noyes, Editor & proprietor "[Mass?] Ploughmen", and a bachelor, seems to want a [underlined] little lot for himself joining mine.

[underlined] Will you kindly tell me what could be done for him and price.

[underlined] also, whether stonework is permitted ^around^ my lot.

[underlined] also whether anything was said about fountain

[underlined] also whether anything about [underlined] name of path "[Band?] of Mercy"

[underlined] also whether my lot is on part of what was on old maps Central Square. It seems to me that old Central Square must have been divided by the path with pump.

And oblige

Yours Truly

Geo. T. Angell
