Dear Mr. Beckley : — I want to express my satisfaction and appreciation of the suc- 
cessful outcome of the planting scheme of the grounds surrounding my new residence at 
Front and Maclay Streets. When I came to consider the question of treatment of the 
lawn, my impression was that it would be necessary to secure the services of an engineer 
or expert in landscape gardening, in laying out the walks, drives, tennis court, trees, 
shrubbery, etc. In fact I did receive several tentative suggestions. However, when you 
submitted your plan, I found that I was in error and that our local talent was fully equal 
to the requirements. Your scheme was adopted with very little change. 1 am very well 
pleased with the broad and comprehensive manner in which you have carried out your 
original ideas, not only as to design, but in execution, carrying out fully the spirit of the 
contract in a manner that has been fair, as well as pleasant and satisfactory. I am par- 
ticularly gratified with the success of your painstaking efforts in the transplanting of the 
large trees, and especially the old copper beech. Very truly yours,
