Dear Er. Overman:
I enclose herewith a Resolution and Deed,
together with letters explaining the proposed return to
the Roselawn Cemetery of property along Roosevelt Boulevard,
which should be returned to the cemetery, since it is not
needed for the building of that street.
It will be appreciated very much if you will
kindly put this Resolution before the next council and take
such other steps as are necessary to convey this property
back to the Cemetery Association.
Yours very truly,
I kwat

Dear Mr. Lund:
Herewith I enclose papers mailed to me
together with resolution which when passed by
the Council will effect the transfer of the prop-
erty.
I suggest that you take this matter up
with the Mayor and have him present it to the
Council at the next meeting. I find the deed is
in proper form and will carry out the problem
you have in mind.
Very truly yours,

Dear Ed:
The Roselawn Memorial. Cemetery donated a strip of land
along the south border, to the City of Little Rock , for the purpose
of constructing Roosevelt Boulevard. This strip was of irregular
width, in order to provide for construction of the viaduct across
the Missouri Pacific Railroad tracks. Now that the street is
completed, it becomes evident that due to a change in plans , all
of the land deeded by the Cemetery Association is not and will not
be used for street purposes.
The Cemetery Association is planning to build a suitable entrance
to its property from Roosevelt Highway and wish to place this entrance
at the proper distance from the highway and finds that in order to do
this, it is desirable that the excess property above described be return-
ed to the Cemetery for this purpose.
I enclose herewith a quit claim deed, prepared for the
transfer of this property from the city to the Cemetery Association
and a small map lowing by the proper symbol the property covered by
said deed.
This letter is to request you to please prepare a suitable
resolution for the Council to authorize the transfer of this land back
to the Cemetery Association. For your further information, will say
that this matter has been discussed with the City Engineer and he is in
favor of this transfer.
Yours very truly,
Alfred M. Lund
