Dear Sir: -
Your communication of last, tendering to our Corporation, in
behalf of the Spring Grove Cemetery, as
I understand it, a pair of "American
Trumpter Swans" was laid before
the Trustees at their first subsequent
meeting, on the inst.
And it was thereupon
Voted that the communication
be referred to the Committee on Grounds.
The Committee on Grounds through
Dr Bigelow, the Chairman, have
directed me to return the
thanks of this Corporation to
the donor, and state that
they will be ready to receive them
at the suitable season of the year,
if you will give them notice
a short time - say a day or two
before hand.
They have no particular direction
to give in the matter of transportation,
and will be glad to leave that to you,
the Corporation, of course paying
charges. -
I suppose it will be best now
to wait until Spring - will it not?
Whenever you may be ready, please
address a note stating time, &c.
to me at this place. -
Yours very Respectfully
A. J. Coolidge Sec.y
