My Dear Doctor
May I trouble you to request your getting a Tombstone maker to send me an estimate & sketch for the necessary to enclose grave of Mr Belisario? What is wanted is something similar to those near where he lies & as per, my attempt at, drawing below. Italian marble preferred & raised letters to be used for inscription &c.
Please select an appropriate Hebrew inscription in addition to data I furnish for headstone.
As I have to leave for South America on the 8th April--kindly recommend marble cutter & hurry forward estimate so that I may agree & have work done ere leaving
With very sincere regards Truly Yours D H Brandon
