TT is now forty years since the nurseries of my father-in-law, the Hon. Joseph 
Breck, were purchased, and I established the Nonantum Hill Nurseries at 
Brighton, Mass. By an honest and faithful supply of a vast number of Trees and 
Plants during this long period, it may be claimed, without undue boasting, that a 
large service has been rendered to the public. With a desire to continue and 
perpetuate this service, my land at Brighton, which had become desirable for 
house-lots, was sold, and the purchase was made of a large tract of land at 
Waban in Newton, now made easily accessible by the Circuit Railroad. To this 
superior location all my interests are now transferred. My expectation is that 
another generation will soon enter upon this work and maintain with jealous care 
the long-established reputation of the Nursery for the faithful execution of all 
orders. This is to me a more desirable end than a sudden expansion of business, 
and a swelling of profits without regard to results. With the advantages of long 
experience, with sufficient capital, with land admirably adapted to the growth of 
most classes of plants, and with all other requisite facilities, it is believed that we 
can produce specimens of the best quality at a minimum cost. 
Samples of Trees and Shrubs may be seen and orders may be left, during 
the months of April and May, at niy stand on Change Avenue, near Dock 
Square, Boston. 
My Telephone number, at Wabag, is West Newton 57-2.
