Seattle Oct. 29, 1874

To the Hon Council of the City of Seattle

Gentlemen:

On the 20th, inst, my
cow escaped from the herder who had
her in charge, and not withstanding
the most diligent search we were
unable to find her until the next
afternoon, when she was taken in
charge by the pound master. I got her
released by paying $2.00 to the man
who was taking her to the pound,
as her escape was not due to any
carelessness of mine I do not feel
that I should be compelled to pay
the fine and hereby respectfully request
that you will cause the same to be
returned to me.

Yours very respectfully

Mrs. M. A. Gardner 808 Hyde St
