To the Hon. the Mayor & City Council of the city of Seattle, King County, Wash. Gentlemen: For petitioner would respectfully show- That I have resided on Lots 1 and 4 Block 87 Terrys 2nd Addition for more than two years last past That there has never beena sewer with which I could connect said residence nearer that the center of James Street a distance of over four hundred feet- (said residence being on the South east corner of Tenth and Jefferson Streets) That in the early part of June last a cut of about 5 feet made by the grade of Jefferson St neat petitioners lots rendered the cesspool thereon a nuisance endangering the health of of the neighborhoods by reason of a constant seepage of filth into the street. Taht you petitioner was compelled to build and did build in said month of June a sewer from said premises to and connecting with James St Sewer a distance of 406 feet at a cost of $243.60 That it seems manifestly unjust that your petitioner should bear said expense and therefore prays that said said expense and therefore prays that said sum be paid to him by the City or so much thereof as may seem to your honorable body just & Proper And your Petitioner will ever pray etc. Alice W Engle A W Engle
