Text flap up and text flap down, Bird's-Eye View along West Oval Approach Drive, James City County, Virginia. The text block reads: "This is the sketch that was made sometime ago and shows the entrance road. If, by chance, there are any box bushes to spare, one might be set on each side of this general plan upon which the building is shown moved south to the new position agreed upon. As the old perspective pictures showed this faithfully, you will see I have not changed the drawing."

Text flap down and text flap up, Bird's-Eye View of Carter's Grove Entrance Road Split at Oval, James City County, Virginia. Text block reads: " You are familiar with this picture which shows four large box bushes at point indicated on the 20 scale plan. Between these bushes are the two steps mentioned in my letter. When you actually set out these four plants, I suggest a space of not more than 8 feet between the two central plants between which the two steps are to be set. The two outer box plants should nearly, if not quite, touch the two inner ones and should not be on the straight line but should swing out a little as shown on this picture and as shown on the above mentioned plan."
