Dr. 0. 0. Kennedy, 



Readville, Maas. 



Dear Sir:- 



We have delayed writing you in relation to the chestnut trees 

 taken from your place in Milton in order to get the wood into shape so 

 that we could take the measurements of it. We have done this work as 

 quickly and aa cheaply as possible, and have converted all the wood into 

 as merchantable shape* aa c^uld be split , but we fear the result has 

 been anything but satisfactory. 



We hired Mr. Mahoney to haul the wood to our yard, which 

 required two days labor at an expense of $10.00. In addition to this 

 our man worked five (5) days at $1.84 per day, or $9.40, making a 

 total for labor of $19.40. In return there are about five (5) cords 

 of cleft wood and four or five trunks which would cost double their 

 value to split. 



We are paying today for chestnut wood delivered at our yard 

 $5.00 per cord, which would make $25.00 for this lot less the $19.40 

 for labor. We will, however, send you our check for $10.00, as we may 

 be able later to sell the trunks for sonething. 



The wood is piled at our yard at the corner of West River and 

 Milton streets, and if you would like to have your man call and 

 measure it if he will call at our Readville office will drive him 

 up there. If this is not satisfactory kindly let us hear from you. 



Yours respectfully,
