Trustees. Jan'y. 8, 1873.

Correspondence
ordered to be recorded by vote of the Board
adopted January 8^t, 1873.

Dr. Bigelow to the Trustees.

Boston, December 10, 1872.

John T. Bradlee, Esq.,

Dear Sir,

I request you to communicate at
the next meeting of the Trustees of M^t Auburn Cemetery, my
resignation, by no means premature, of the office of Trustee
of that Institution.

On leaving the long familiar meetings of Mount
Auburn, with which I have been associated for more than
forty years, I would not fail to give utterance to the
satisfaction which we must all feel that an enterprize
which was new a few years since, has become an object
of successful imitation in all parts of this Continent.

With sincere acknowledgments for the uniform
courtesy and kindness which I have received from the
Trustees and the Corporation,

Yours with respect and regard,

(Signed) Jacob Bigelow.
