<br />"Mr. R. S. Albert
<br />320 E. Ireland Road
<br />South Bend, Indiana, 46614
<br />Dear Mr. Albert:
<br />"I have asked the Park Department arborist to examine the
<br />row of maple trees across the front of your property at the
<br />above address. He has reported that the method used to pro-
<br />tect the trees from the back slope should be effective in
<br />preventing damage to the trees. He also believes that the
<br />trees nearest the drive are suffering from dry weather wilt
<br />which has been very common in maple trees this past summer.
<br />"However, to assure you of no financial burden in the future
<br />should the trees not recover, the Board of Public Works agrees
<br />to remove any tree which dies within two years of this date,
<br />and to replace said tree or trees with two inch maples of the
<br />same variety.
