LUDDEN OFFICE OF SMITH & LUDEN, COUNSELLORS AT LAW, 5 PEMBERTON SQUARE, ROOMS 25 & 26, BOSTON. Boston, Mass., Mar. 14, 1895. George E. Muzzey, Esq., Lexington, Mass. Dear Sir:- We were sorry today that you did not find Mr. Smith or Mr. Ludden in when you called to inquire about the proposed act in relation to the lines between Waltham and Lexington. We do not regard the matter as of any consequence to Lexington else we should have sent you word before this. The city engineer of Waltham requested this to be done and without any investigation on the part of anybody we put in the usual petition which calls for a statute authorising the commissioners on topographical survey to establish the lines between Waltham and Lexington. There have been a number of such acts introduced this winter the purpose being to establish the town bounds by this commission. If your rights are in any way to be affected the proper place for the hearing will come before the commissioners on topographical survey. The proposed act is introduced for the purpose of authorizing this comission to act and we see no possible reason why Lexington should object to this. If, however, you object to it in any way please let us know at once and it can probably be arranged to your satisfaction. The hearing on the Cambridge water act is assigned for next Monday forenoon. We have written to Mr. Smith in regard to it and we would very much like to have the whole board come in if you can because it shows an interest in the matter which is likely to have some effect on the Committee. Very truly yours, Smith and Ludden
