Seattle, September 19th, 1893.
To the Hon. Board of Public Works, of the City of Seattle, Wash.
Gentlemen:
Your petitioners, residents and property owners at Fremont and Edgewater, hereby petition your Honorable Body to order the ten arc lights that are to be erected in Fremont and Edgewater to be placed on the top of poles. The section to be lighted from these lamps has but few buildings and all of them are low; if the lights can be placed high a much larger territory would be illuminated, and many streets would receive the benefit from such lights that would not if they were suspended across the intersection of the streets.

To The Honorable Board of Public Works
AND
CITY COUNCIL of the city of Seattle, Washington.
Gentlemen: --
We the undersigned citizens of Fremont, and the newly annexed territory to your city, would respectfully represent to your honorable bodies that we are sadly in need of lights for our streets and railroad-crossings: that the Houre of Delegates has promised us four (4) arc lights, and the Board of Aldermen has agreed to give us seven (7) arc lights, but as the matter stands we are not assured of getting any lights at all.
Wherefore: we most humbly petition that you take definite action at your very earliest convenience, and supply us with the number of arc lights you see fit, but that they be put up at once if possible.
