City of Seattle Records

Seattle, Wash June 6th 1895 To the Honorable Board of the City Council; Gentlemen We undersigned submit a petition [?] of time fothe conpletion of the grade of Knight Street between Broadway & Williamson. For several reasons the work could not go on as fast as it was intended & now we meet with other difficulties which compel us to ask your honorable board to grant us at the very least three months more; ie: so as to complete the work when Williamson Str will be graded. This grade was authorizedd last winter under the supervision of the City Engineer Mr. Thomson; at our own cost; the greater part of the work is done, but the remainder would if finished now be a nuisance for us & the neighborhood instead of being an accommodation on account over
