I David T Denny of Seattle Left side of page notes King County W T would represent to the Hon Council of the City of Seattle Blk B R to $50 per lot that all the lots in Blocks A & B in my 6th addition to Seattle are assessed at three hundred dollars Blk 93 Lts 1 2 3 R to $150 per lot each, and the lots so described are entirely covered with water and Blk 94 Lts 1 2 3 R to $150 per lot therefore at the present time are very much less valuable than those on the land which are assessed at the same price. Also lots 1 - 2 - 3 in Block 93 in D T Denny 1M addition also lots 1 - 2 - 3 in Block 94 in same add are water lots and assessed too high also part of Lot 1 and the SE 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of Sec 29 T 25 NE 4 E is too high and in consequence theseof I do hereby present this as my written protest to and against said valuations. Given under my hand and seal this 23rd day of May A D 1884 D T Denny Seal
