To the Hon Mayor and City Council
of the City of Seattle.
In reply to the Report of the
Board of Park Commissioners in reference to the Kinnear
Park I wish to say that the statement made by the
Commissioner that all the improvements have been
made that are required by the agreement between
the City and myself is a mistake.
There is about one acre of the Park lying below the Bluff
that remains uncleared which under the agreement was
to be cleared before the deed should pass.
The part that the Commissioners did clear was well done and
I signed a statement to that effect and what I claim
is that all the clearing agreed to be done before the
deed should be delivered was not done.
I have always been willing to deliver the deed when this
work was completed, and will now deliver the deed
to the City Council it to be the judge whether all the work
has been done as agreed upon or not.
I instructed M V Furth to deliver the deed when
called for by you.
