[letterhead: Telephone, John 308. P.O. Box, 1371. CABLES "MOSEMIN." FROM THE MINERALIZED RUBBER CO.. 18 CLIFF STREET, NEW YORK,] Sept 24 1888

H.B. MacKintosh Esq [?] Mt Auburn Cemtary [Corp?] Dear Sir Answering your favor of 21st the last on which I would propose to make an endowment [stand?] in the name of Col F.[T.?] [Dodge?] [?]. His number I do not know. I do not propose to make any endowment on the [lot?] further than regards the single interment of Mary S Dodge to whom I understand a headstone has been erected in thislot + whose interment therein I [?] on Jan 5th (I think) last. Waiting the favor of your reply [?] Your humble [?] [George?] Dodge

Sept. 2 5/88

To Supt.

I understand from this letter that only the p.C. of the headstones is required -- Do you want to contract for a single Stone, the lot not being under p.C.?

If you object to ^{taking a single grave}, why not answer this direct, giving reasons?

Yours truly,

H B M

Answ^d. Single graves & parts of lots not taken --

better come to some understanding with others interested & provide for care of whole --
