City of Seattle Records

Mr President: Your Committee on Claims to whom was referred House of Del. Bill#_ Beg leave to report that the statements made herein we find are true but we do not believe that the Petitioner is entitled to the rebate of the first three items as we find that nothing was destroyed, and that all persons engaged in this business assume the risk of epidemic. The succeeding seven items were destroyed by officials of the City, therefore he should be reimbursed to the amount of seventy nine and 25/00 dollars.
