To the
Corporation of Mt. Auburn Cemetery

Dear Sirs,

A recent interment in lot 1249
Alianthus Path -- standing in the name of George
P. Tewksbury -- brought to notice that on September
6^th 1847 an interment of one "Nancy P.
Spear aged 18 years" is entered on
your books as having been made in
this lot. We made a visit to your office
at Mt. Auburn the day following the recent
interment and saw the entry -- This Nancy P.
Spear is not known to the family -- and caused
some disappointment in placing the body of
an aged sister last October. There are but
five interments of the family -- Lydia -- Ellen --
George -- Harriet T. -- H. Elizabeth -- the sixth Nancy
P. Spear cannot be accounted for and there
must be some mistake which ought for
obvious reasons to be explained.

Will you kindly give it your attention and advise

Yours Very Respectfully

Chas. O. Eaton

42 and 44 Camb St
