To the Hon. City Council of the City of Seattle:
Your petitioner. Roy Armstrong respectfully represents that on the 14th day of Sept 1892 your petitioner paid into the City Treasury the sum of Five dollars and obtained therefore a license as a peddler for the period of one month from Sept 14- 1892 to Oct 14- 1892; that said petitioner had a stock on hand at the time of taking out said license and continuosuly thereafter until after the passage of ordinance No. [8372?] by which peddling was forbidden within the business portion of said City; that the privilege of peddling in the City of Seattle outside of the limits fixed by said ordinance is of no value to said petitioner, and he feels that by the passage of said ordinance the consideration for said money so paid into the City Treasury has failed, and your petitioner now offers to surrender to the City said license on return of the money paid by him as aforesaid: that said ordinance took effect. on the 27th day of September, 1892 and said petitioner was compelled immediately to stop peddling under said license.
WHEREFORE said petitioner respecfully prays that the said sum of five dollars be refunded to him on surrender of his license which he is ready to surrender when said money is appropriated as herein prayed for. And your petitioner prays that justice may be done him in the premises.

County of King.
